Menongkah Kasih

2016

A gentle, heartfelt family drama that quietly aches with loneliness and the longing for connection, moving at an unhurried pace.

Directed by
Ayie Mustafa
Overview
# Translation It tells the story of a single mother, Datin Rahmah (Zarina Zainuddin), who is so busy developing her business that she neglects her two children, Reffa (Ana Dahlia) and Riyana (Ayda Jebat). Due to her busyness, Reffa and Riyana feel they are lacking attention and affection. As they grow up, Reffa and Riyana do their own thing. Datin Rahmah is aging and begins to demand the affection of her children. Datin Rahmah feels lonely without the affection of her children, Reffa and Riyana, even though they live under the same roof. Every morning Datin will have breakfast alone. Although Reffa works in her company, Reffa rarely goes to work with Datin. Riyana, on the other hand, has often made poor choices in friends since her school days until now. Sometimes Datin feels jealous of the life of her driver, Pak Mid. Although all of Pak Mid's children live in a hostel, they always keep in contact and ask about each other's well-being.
