215. A tree in Tanjung Malim (2004)


Country: Malaysia
Directed by Tan Chui Mui

A great realistic and modest film of 24 minutes length that compose masterfully during of the interaction of its two characters the discomfort that often we feel when everything seems displaced. While the young girl feels an anxiety and uncertaincy about future , the older guy is already disillusioned about life. Although they are attracted each other they can't do the step forward and be together. However, the film ends with a rather optimistic way. 'A tree in Tanjung Malim' is one of the first short films of Tan Chui Mui made with an extremelly low budget and it proves her huge talent that still didn't pay off fully yet
