SaBalik Baju, the latest film produced by Red Communications, explores the seduction, the destruction and the empowerment of social media for six women, changing their lives for better or for worse.
The multi-starrer film casts Mira Filzah, Juliana Evans, Kaka Azraff, Nadiya Nisaa, Sarancak and introducing Elena Moujing. They each play characters in six different stories which are all interconnected. Each character comes to a crossroad when they have to face up to their fears or the demons in their lives.
With a strong cast and compelling soundtrack by various artists, the stories are treated humorously and have their fair share of twists and turns along the way.
Below is a brief synopsis of SaBalik Baju film:
In Hak Peribody, Dahlia (Nadiya Nisaa) is a writer who feels lost after the women’s magazine which she has worked in all her life closes down. She blames social media and how everyone has now shifted their lives to depend on it. When she overhears an argument between a husband and a wife one day, Dahlia is inspired to start an online business selling sexy lingerie to spice up relationships between spouses. Hak Peribody is written and directed by Junad Nor.
In the next story Love Clicks, digital native Hannah (Elena Moujing) thinks she is falling in love with User ID 721 whom she met on the latest dating app Love Clicks. Problem is, she really doesn’t know what he looks like because all everyone sees is each other’s avatar. Love Clicks is written and directed by Sarah Lois.
In Dalam Kain, relationship coach Sierra (Sarancak) finds her husband Hanif on dating app Hunny Bunny, where everyone knows if you are on it, you are just looking for ‘hook-ups’. Sierra becomes a laughing stock on social media. She decides to go along with her best friend’s plan to find out if Hanif is cheating on her. Dalam Kain is written and directed by Sarah Lois.
In Bukan Salah Ibu Mengandung, beauty blogger Myra (Juliana Evans) and her manager husband Irfan’s (Alif Satar) livelihood is threatened when she is now heavily pregnant with her first child. Myra finds her hormones going crazy and develops a serious aversion to makeup, prompting a warning from her clients. Written by Rafidah Abdullah and directed by Umie Salwana Omar.
Aset is about Salina (Kaka Azraff) who has always been conscious of her large bust size. She finds herself seated next to Sally (Joanne Kam), a rather outspoken and gregarious woman. This chance encounter changes Salina’s perspective about her body forever. Written by Rafidah Abdullah and directed by Afiza Asram.
The last story Angkat Kaki is about Aria (Mira Filzah) who wants a career more than a husband. However, her over-protective, super conservative father disagrees as he thinks that a woman should not have to work so hard in life. Angkat Kaki is written and directed by Afiza Asram.
