Based on a True Story

Based on a True Story

A Bit of Culture continues its foray into the world of culture, this time around with documentary filmmaker Ahmad Yazid Ahmad Fuad and playwright Adriana Nordin Manan. The show begins with Kam’s curiosity about the trade winds, and he’s banking on Yazid’s experience in sailing to help him understand it deeper. From the seas, they then head to the skies to talk about astrology and how it’s perceived now. After the break, the gang speaks about the ethics behind claiming something is “based on a true story.” Tune in to reflect on these topics!

Produced by: Haniff Baharudin
