It's been 6 nights that the film opened at TGV, KLCC. We sit in the cinema every night to make sure the projection quality is right; no light switched on when the show started and the darkness should remain until the end credit finished.

The director, Tan Chui Mui and the sound designer Pete Teo were in Tokyo Filmex to present the film last year.
