Kisah Tauke Mancis & Minyak Tumpah is a story of two communities and the relocation of a temple. The 2010 film takes a look behind its sensational headlines to understand how the dispute came to be, and reminds us how extremism can easily be fueled when we fail to understand the context of the dispute, and manage such situations beyond the emotions. We find out more from the directors of the film, Sheridan Mahavera Shakir and Siti Nurbaiyah Nadzmi. This film will be re-released this weekend on the Freedom Film Network's Youtube channel, as part of their ‘Weekend Watch with FreedomFilmFest.' Each thematic playlist has allowed us to revisit past human rights issues, and weigh their relevance in today's climate and context.
