Goodbye My Lover (1955)

Facing the objections of a stubborn mother, star-crossed lovers Hassan and Lai Lai struggle to come to terms with the difficulties of separation in a time of a new multicultural Malaya. Believed to be one of the earliest Malayan film featuring an interracial romance between a Malay man and a Chinese woman, this film was deemed controversial for its time for being culturally and religiously insensitive.
