The Red Kebaya is a 2006 Malaysian period drama film released by Golden Screen Cinemas, directed by Oliver Knott and produced by Andre Berly and Ramli Hassan.
At one particular house on the island of Penang, Latiff is magically transported back over 50 years to witness the shocking events that occurred there.
Through his experience, Latiff comes to understand the significance of the Red Kebaya, a traditional Malay outfit, and the tragic circumstances that led to him being orphaned.
Initially the owners of the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion were reluctant to have their premise used for filming.
But after a series of meetings and much persuasion that lead them to better understand the concept of the movie, they finally allowed the crew and cast in.
