Synopsis : "This world is a house of mask, Goddess  of mercy and God of salvation, for  those who tremble with fear, for those who fail to secure, for those who pray too much, put on your masks..." – Baha Zain

Topeng-Topeng
is an adaptation from Dato’ Baha Zain’s poems, depicting the voices of the people in the 1960’s and 1970’s era.

The story starts at the Bistro, the after-work hang-out of professionals, where we meet Gito, an ex-party member and owner of the bistro lives it up with his other patrons.

But his fun comes to an abrupt halt one night when Gito's wife and mistress find out about each other.

Conflict after conflict arise, as the characters unmask their real self and feelings.

Directed by Fauziah Nawi with music by Iryanda Mulia Ramli.
