Lelaki Harapan Dunia (2014)

Liew Seng Tat's absurdist comedy about a village community's response to a cow that refuses to move from a road captures the rhythms of rural Malaysian Malay life with a gentleness and surreal wit that places it in the tradition of great Southeast Asian slow cinema. It won the Tiger Award at the Rotterdam International Film Festival and remains a touchstone for Malaysian art cinema audiences.
