Malaysian Movie Night is proud to present to you "Talentime", a Malaysian movie by Director Yasmin Ahmad. This movie has been nominated for the SIGNIS Award at the 33rd Hong Kong International Film Festival.

"Talentime" is a heartwarming, beautiful movie that shows what it means to be a Malaysian. It deals with interracial issues in a multicultural setting that captures the beauty and the uniqueness of Malaysia.

In "Talentime", a music teacher, who is herself a great performer is organizing an inter-school talentime. Through the days of auditions, rehearsals and preparations, running up to the big day of the contest, the characters get embroiled in a world of heightened emotions - ambition, jealousy, human comedy, romance, heartbreak - all of which culminate in a day of great music and performances.

Director Yasmin Ahmad's film is always full of joy and pain, hope and despair, beautifully-written songs and rich characters. Feel free to come and have a wonderful Thursday FREE Movie Night with us!
