Confessions Of A Movie Addict Schizophrenic

This is a story of a Malay Muslim girl named Juni who gets a prestigious Japanese government scholarship to study in the Land of the Rising Sun. Along with three other Malaysian girls named Caren, Ai Lin and Janet, they meet up with two other Monbukagakusho scholars from Singapore, Kevin and Desmond, at the arrival hall of Kansai International Airport, Osaka. The novel recounts Juni’s ‘adventures’ with these new friends of hers, but mostly it is a story about how a Malay Muslim girl decides to abandon her faith and enjoy her life in Japan. However, a huge event that occurs prior to Juni’s departure for Japan causes her mind to slowly spiral out of control and eventually she falls into a descent of darkness that is the onset of her psychotic episode.
