Brief Explanation

Erman, a PETRONAS engineer stationed in Central Asia, struggles to adjust to life away from home, when his path crosses that of local boy, Jeyhun. While the two start out as strangers, every step brings them closer to realising their own true potential, by reimagining their energy and making a difference to those around them. It’s a story of one man’s journey of self-discovery and exploration towards the meaning of life. While past PETRONAS commercials have always celebrated stories from within Malaysia, this year it tells a ‘bigger’ story of the role that PETRONAS plays in the countries it operates in across the globe.
