Usung Putih

After her mother's death, Ayie takes on the responsibility of caring for her younger sister Aina. They live independently and stay in a house left behind by their mother. Ayie works as a street sweeper to support both of them. Kak Azah and Abang Zul are neighbors who frequently offer assistance to the siblings. However, since Aina was hit by a hit-and-run driver and became half-paralyzed, life for the siblings becomes increasingly difficult. Kak Azah and Abang Zul offer help to care for Aina, but Abang Zul loses control of himself and attempts to take advantage of Aina. Since then, Aina has gone missing without a trace. Where could Aina have gone?

Directed by Al Bakri Al Harith, Usung Putih leans on a strong ensemble — Syafie Naswip, Qistina Shafiah Hazali, Kamisah Hj Manaf — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2017.
