House, a short film released on 24th August which shows a typical incident that happens to many Malaysians who are poor living in illegal built house. There is one Indian student who was asked by teacher to built a dream house model but he built a model of his own house instead which is just a small house. He was humiliated by the teacher and fellow students because of that.  This film shows a typical social economic problem facing by most Malaysians.

Halal, another short film released today. This is a comedy film shows the proper Islamic methods of slaughtering chicken in a Halal way. It is very hilarious and you will have a good laugh out of it.

The Tree, another short film by 15Malaysia. For me, this is a very interesting short film with political leader Nik Aziz acting inside. This film talks about merits. I infact agree to what he said in the film. We need “merits” currency in the afterlife. When human pass away, human cannot bring all the money, gold, coins, jade or any valuable to the graveyard and afterlife. I myself is a buddhist. In buddhism we also have the same saying, in afterlife we need “merits” as currency.

We must not take money too seriously and greedy over it. As long as we have enough to use and support our life is good enough. We instead need to do more charity to gain more merits. If we greedy over money, we tends to forget about what is the meaning of life. Well.. have you all think about what is the meaning of your life? For me, I think life will be meaningful if we do charity and good thing to help out others to have a better life. In return, we also happy that we can help others.

Now here is the video: try to get meaning of what Nik Aziz said in the film.

The second short film out of 15 short films in total just goes live at 12.00 am Malaysian Time. I not really understand the meaning behind the story but just enjoy it… here is the video:
