Malaysia’s latest action film Gayong (pic) is set to break into the international market with a release in 33 Latin American countries. The movie tells the story of the late Datuk Meor Abdul Rahman, the founder and grandmaster of silat Gayong.
Its producer Eric Ong said the opportunity arose after his company Movie Move's international marketing representative secured buyers from Latin America who were very interested in films featuring Asian martial arts, including silat, during the recent Cannes Film Festival in France.
