KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 2 — After exploring Malaysian stories in La Luna (2023) and Badak (2025), Singaporean filmmaker M. Raihan Halim is back with Goreng!, a new action comedy that turns a humble pisang goreng (banana fritters) stall into unlikely cover for a bank heist.
The film follows Johari Hamzah, who devises an ambitious plan to rob a bank by renting a shop directly opposite it and digging a tunnel into its vault.
To avoid attracting suspicion, Johari and his friends run a pisang goreng stall by day while working on their underground tunnel at night.
But their carefully planned heist begins to unravel when their humble shop, Goreng, unexpectedly goes viral, leaving the gang scrambling to cope with a sudden rush of customers.
