Tension arises when everyone starts fighting over what happened in school. Time is running out for the boys, and they begin to realize that the UFO chase is more than what it seems.

◆Director's Message
After my first feature, I found myself wanting to make a film that focuses on matters close to my heart. I wanted to reflect my Malaysian roots in the film. Having spent my youth in a boarding school, I recalled the camaraderie that was formed and how that friendship has evolved. I was also at a point where I had my principles tested where I had to face the pressure to conform to society. At the time, I felt a need to have a voice in the local Malaysian filmmaking scene. With all these ideas in mind, I developed a strong will to explore these topics and that was how NOVA came into existence.
