Not long after the last one, Fikri and Ezzah are back for the 70th episode of Thoughts on Films. They dig deep into a long-planned but never-executed episode focusing on selected films from the Fat Bidin COVID-19 Mini Docs film competition! An event that ran in the middle of the year, the jury chose a winner and two runners-up from a shortlist of over 20. Fikri took a closer look at the podium finishers, while Ezzah (having seen them all) shared her thoughts on the best of the rest.
Finally, we would like to wish our listeners Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
- The top three films were ‘MCO: Marriage Crisis Ongoing’, ‘Pakej Khatan Peribadi’ and ‘The Heart to Feel’, while Ezzah spent some time talking about ‘Flipping Pages’ and ‘If Walls Could Talk’
