The Lifeline of Klang Valley: A Short Film on the Klang River's Enduring Spirit (Part 1)

The short film celebrates the river’s importance to human life. Part 1 explores the clean, life-giving source, to its journey downstream, being polluted and neglected along the way.

Kuala Lumpur got its famous name of kuala (confluence) and lumpur (muddy), as it was founded at the muddy confluence of the Klang and Gombak river. The importance of the river to the city could not be understated, yet many in the city are unaware of the life-giver that flows in their urban environments. Part 2 (which will premiere next year) focuses on the restoration efforts and symbols of hope for the river, hoping to inspire the community to feel connected to the river and to take care of it with renewed respect
