Sinopsis "Jarum Halus"/Plot Story of Jarum Halus:

Filem Jarum Halus mengisahkan tentang betapa rumitnya suatu perhubungan sehingga berlakunya satu tragedi. Kisah ini bermula apabila Daniel dan Iskandar dua orang sahabat baik yang bekerja di sebuah syarikat yang sama iaitu di Ecotech, di bawah seorang pengurusnya bernama Datuk Kalel.

Daniel merupakan seorang pekerja yang rajin dan oleh sebab kerajinannya, Iskandar berasa kurang senang hati apabila Daniel mendapat lebih perhatian daripada pengurus mereka.

Akibat dendam yang membara, terjadilah satu persengketaan sehinggakan terjadinya suatu tragedi yang tidak dijangka.

Friendship. Love. Jealousy. Suspicion. Betrayal. Murder.

"Jarum Halus" is a story about the complexity and fragility of relationships, and how "little sins" can easily snowball into great tragedy.

Daniel Oh (CHRISTIEN NEW) has risen from his troubled childhood to chart his own destiny as one of the fast-rising young corporate stars at Ecotech, where he works together with his best friend Iskandar (RAZIF HASHIM) for Datuk Kalel (DATO RAHIM RAZALI).

However, Daniel's success, as well as what he perceives as Kalel's apparent favouritism towards Daniel in the workplace, builds resentment within Iskandar.



When Daniel elopes with another Malay colleague's daughter Mona (JULIANA IBRAHIM), Iskandar hatches a plot to discredit Daniel. He uses the headstrong and trusting Mona, gullible fellow employee Michael (JUSTIN CHAN), a brash secret admirer of Mona's named Rahim (MEGAT SHARIZAL) and even his own distanced wife Emilia (FARAH PUTRI) as pawns in what appears to start out as a spiteful game. But Iskandar's jealous scheming snowballs to disproportionate levels, finally climaxing in tragic consequences.

"Jarum Halus" is the directorial debut of talented young Malaysian filmmaker MARK TAN. It is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's classic play "Othello", set in modern-day Kuala Lumpur and using a mix of Malaysian English and Malay (with English subtitles).

Also starring STEPHANIE CHAI and HILMY NOR, with cameo appearances by YASMIN YUSUFF, DOUGLAS LIM, COLIN KIRTON, MONTI and LAVIN SEOW.

Note: "Jarum halus", apart from its literal meaning of "fine needle", is also a Malay idiom meaning "a web of deceit, or a conspiracy".

ANUGERAH BLOGGER PALING AKTIF 2008: AN AWARD FOR SAPPHIRE BLU


Terima kasih Chenta kerana memberi anugerah ini kepada sapphire blu. Thanks so much Chenta for this award.

Some words to share with you:

I still remember very well the first time I started to blog. I do not know how to begin and all I know was to update about what I cooked for the day. Then after watching Akademi Fantasia Season 6 where Stacy was the winner and for American Idol Season 7, David Cook was announced the new American Idol for this season.


Sapphire Blu's first post on December 31, 2007


sapphire blu's second post on Januari 1, 2008

After that I continue to write following what my heart desire to. Whenever I on the computer, I just post whatever that comes to my mind and here it is: In just less than a year I have learnt so much about updating my blog and I am so blessed to say that throughout my time spent here I got to know many friends through: sapphire speaks her mind

Thank you so much everyone who has been visiting my blog and one of them is Chenta. A very special thanks to Chenta whom I have known in just less than 2 days.

Salam semua daripada sapphire blu untuk anda. Sapphire masih ingat pertama kalinya sapphire mula kemas kini iaitu pada 31 Disember 2007 di mana cuma beberapa patah perkataan yang dilafazkan iaitu: "Sayonara 2007 and mushi mushi 2008"

Tetapi setelah Akademi Fantasia 6 dan American Idol 7 mula disiarkan, sapphire terus mengemaskinikan mengenai kedua-dua program ini hingga lah ke akhir rancangan serta program realiti yang lain. Selain itu, sapphire juga kemas kinikan sinetron dari Indonesia dan TVB drama, dll. Banyak pengalaman yang telah dipelajari oleh sapphire melalui kemaskini.

Kini sapphire bukan sahaja mendapat lebih pengetahuan daripada semua ini tetapi sapphire juga mendapat lebih ramai kenalan lagi melalui blog sapphire. Terima kasih semua sekali lagi kerana telah singgah di sini.

Sekian daripada sapphire blu untuk anda.
