Di Luar Bayangan: Kisah Chandran

Sinopsis Filem
Sebuah panggilan telefon membawa berita kehilangan seorang bapa buat keluarga. Sebuah tragedi dalam tahanan.

Di Luar Bayangan / Beyond Understanding adalah satu siri filem pendek mengenai kematian dan penderaan dalam tahanan. Setiap kisah menyoroti perjalanan yang berbeza, dari perspektif mangsa, keluarga mereka, peguam, aktivis, dan pekerja hak asasi manusia.

Film Synopsis
A phone call brings news of the loss of a father. A tragedy in custody... one of just too many such cases in Malaysia. Whether a crime was committed or not, does any person deserve to be treated inhumanly just because they are behind bars? Based on court proceedings and the testimonies of family members and lawyers, this shadow play is inspired by the true story of Chandran Perumal. Di Luar Bayangan / Beyond Understanding is a series of short films about death and abuse in custody. Each story highlights a different journey — from the perspectives of victims, their families, lawyers, activists, and human rights workers.
