Set in the early 1990’s, a critical period in Malaysian Indian history, the story subtly underlines the plight of the Indian Malaysians. Forsaken by the estate owners who had employed them for generations and systematically marginalized, they are forced to move to the cities and survive under harsh circumstances.

The movie is inspired by the famous Malaysian urban legend about a mysterious yellow-coloured Volkswagen seen on Karak highway. According to legend, when you see the car on the highway, do not overtake it as it will keep appearing in front of you, and what`s worse, no driver seems to be driving the car.
