Rendra Zawawi feat. Yuna – Bermula Kita

Production notes

Following the historic result of the 14th Malaysian General Election in 2018, filmmaker Ineza Roussille and her team put together the feature documentary M for Malaysia, an insider’s account of then-92-year-old Tun Mahathir’s unlikely rise and resurgence onto the political scene. LA-based Malaysian composer Rendra Zawawi was tasked with crafting the score and the theme song for the film, in collaboration with the Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (MPYO). The film’s producers approached international superstar Yuna to lend her voice to the film’s theme song, “Bermula Kita“, and it was around this time that talks began with us to assist with the production support of the music video, which was shot at the Petronas Philharmonic Hall with Varicam 35 and Lumix GH5s, and Uniq Optics cine lenses.
