This project showcases 15 local film makers, the list of which includes Yasmin Ahmad, and a movie by Ho Yuhang featuring the controversial Namewee of the national anthem scandal fame. If that got your interest piqued, guess what, here's the video. Do not attempt if you don't want to laugh today.
Also available is Chocolate by Yasmin Ahmad, one of her last works before her passing. Rummage around in Youtube, you will find it, quite easily.
Note: The name Potong Saga is a play at the first national car Proton Saga and the word 'Potong' which means cut. Muslims are required by religion to circumcise themselves. In cases where boys turning of age are to be circumcised, the exercise is done with a small ceremony. I'm guessing that the Saga in its English meaning is also at play here, referring to the whole ordeal to be a saga of sorts.
