Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Pekak (English: Deaf) is a 2015 Malaysian Malay-language drama thriller film directed by Mohd Khairul Azri Mohd Noor and starring Zahiril Adzim, Sharifah Amani, Iedil Putra and Joe Flizzow. The film tells the story of Uda, a deaf drug dealer who lives a life of crime so he can afford his Cochlear implants. His life, however, changes when he meets Dara, a rebellious schoolgirl who yearns to be free from her father's watching eyes. This sparks a relationship always on the brink in a world riddled with violence, sex and drugs. The film was sold at the Marché du Film on 17 May 2016. It was later released to Malaysian cinemas nationwide on 1 September of the same year. It was however banned in Brunei due to scenes that the country's censors claim could "give bad influence" on the audience. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
