Director Statement

Bad Days Don't Last is a long time dream genre that I wished to make as an ardent fan of spy and James Bond like films. This short film is a fusion of native story from Malaysia told in a stylish way as an imaginary thought of what if James Bond existed in Southeast Asia and embark on missions to safe the world. It's purely fictional so, join my world to know more about it.
