'Pulang': A compelling love story that will make you cry

"Thom, don't forget to pack my favourite ikan masin when I leave for Singapore."

When longing to be reunited with a loved one, sometimes one has no definite answer on how long the waiting game will be.

In the film Pulang, the person playing the waiting game is Thom (Puteri Aishah). When her fisherman husband Othman (Remy Ishak) decides to take up a job as a sailor, she has no choice but to let him go. As time goes by, it becomes sadly evident that her husband is not coming home.
