Welcome to the Jungle




The production team of Hanyut, 'scourging' the jungle of Kuala Lipis in order to find the perfect location to built the set of the film.

It is no easy task building the set in the jungle, but difficult it may seem, it is of necessity.

It is vital to the story telling, the set is part of the story, a big part of the story.  It will not only give a glimpse of life in the early 19th century Kuala Lipis, but will set the mood, feel, and tone for the film as well.
