    A personal short documentary film by Ezzah Mahmud about two sisters investigating and exploring the silence that haunts their family.

    This deeply moving short documentary explores the silence that has shaped Ezzah and her sister Faridah’s family, revisiting childhood memories that triggered it. Will they finally be able to break the silence?

    Through archival footage, the film reflects on how children navigate life with a mother who has a severe mental illness, a poignant journey of healing, resilience, and reconciliation.

    *the screening will be started with Amirul Ramthan's "Fafa: Perjuangan yang Tak Didendang (The Unknown Struggle Of Fafa)" and then followed by Ezzah Mahmud's "The Weight of Silence".
