Okay, let us break it down for you! “House Your Film Screening EP1 ” is all about creating a safe, inclusive space (think of it like your fav mamak hangout spot but for filmmakers). It’s where young Malaysian creators can ‘house’ their ideas , connect with their peers, and showcase their work without any judgment.

And why “EP1”? Coz this is just the start of something epic ! Think of it as Season 1 of your fave Malaysian drama series—except this one’s real life, and YOU get to be part of the story. We’re building a platform that’ll grow and evolve, celebrating the voices of emerging filmmakers who are repping our rojak culture on screen.

So yeah, this isn’t just an event—it’s the beginning of a movement. Let’s make it lit together!

What’s the vibe of this theme "No Rules, Just Feels"?

Picture this: raw, unfiltered creativity straight from the heart—no deadlines, no paychecks, no “you must do this or that.” Sounds kinda like our lives before PTPTN payments hit, right?

This theme is all about celebrating the stories young Malaysian filmmakers create when they’re not bogged down by societal pressures or expectations. These films are messy, real, and full of feels—just like life in Malaysia! From kampung tales to urban struggles, these stories reflect the chaos and beauty of being young in our rojak nation.

It’s a space to drop the rulebook, embrace the feels, and celebrate storytelling before the world tells us to “grow up.” So come thru, connect with the vibes, and let’s hype up the next wave of Malaysian filmmakers!

What to Expect?

Can I expect some real Malaysian vibes?
HECK YES! You’ll be vibing to short films by young Malaysian filmmakers who are all about repping our rojak culture. These stories are raw, unfiltered, and straight from the heart—made before life’s deadlines (like PTPTN payments) or societal pressures came knocking.

Can I actually talk to the filmmakers?
DUH, OF COURSE! After the screenings, we’re keeping it 100 with chill Q&A sesh. Ask them anything—from their creative struggles to how they got their ideas while stuck in KL traffic. It’s your chance to learn and vibe with the next big names in Malaysian cinema.

Will I meet other film nerds like me?
YASSS, QUEEN/KING! This is THE spot to link up with fellow film enthusiasts, industry OGs, and creators who stan storytelling as much as you do. Plus, there’s free flow of light refreshments to keep the convo going. Who knows? You might just find your next collab partner or ride-or-die creative buddy.

Is this event actually making a difference?
