Harith slams move to nominate films under non-Malay category


Comedian and television host Harith Iskander will be taking part in the upcoming Anak-Anak Malaysia Walk with his wife Dr Jezamine Lim.

PETALING JAYA: “Would you dance by language?” asks comedian and television host Harith Iskander, in making a point on the universality of art, when commenting on the controversy surrounding the upcoming 28th Malaysian Film Festival (FMM28).

Harith said that the decision by the orga­nisers of FFM28 to move films such as OlaBola and Jagat from being nominated for Best Film to Best Film (non-Malay language) did not make sense.
