Since Fikri and Muz banged on about the films of other people so much, they decided to change tack for this particular episode and beat their own drums. Offering an in-depth analysis of how these projects got started, the 22nd episode of Thoughts on Films look at their own efforts, ‘Kopi Dan Dia’ and ‘Following’. Find out why they considered it a success, and what they would have done differently if given a second chance, on the world’s only film podcast to be done in Bahasa Malaysia!
