Nevin Hiong is no stranger to the local film industry. Since 2012, he has established himself as a director of photography on films like Kongsi, Cerita Kita, Cerita Hantu Malaysia and Karak.

When it was time to make Kampung Drift – his feature film debut as a director – Hiong had no problems getting names like Syafie Naswip and Pekin Ibrahim to star in it. Pekin who previously worked with Hiong in Cerita Kita, recalled the excitement he felt about Kampung Drift.
