Jarum Halus
2008 Malaysian film
Jarum Halus is a 2008 Malaysian drama film. It is a modern-day adaptation of William Shakespeare's Othello. The film's title (Malay: "Fine Needle") is derived from a Malay idiom meaning web of deceit or conspiracy, which is a major theme in the plot of the film.[1]
The plot remains faithful to the source material, with the cast all taking their Shakespearian counterparts either in name, character or both.
