"Saan Nagtatago si Happiness?" screenings

"Saan Nagtatago si Happiness?" TO BE SHOWnN AT SM DIGITAL THEATERS NATIONWIDE

"Saan Nagtatago si Happiness?" is coming to the big screen
in all SM digital theaters nationwide starting March 7. A box-office
hit in last year's Cinemalaya film festival, this light and breezy
semi-musical cum comedy movie tackles man's elusive search for
happiness in typical Pinoy fashion.

Starring veteran stage actor and singing champion Andy
Bais in the role of Tikyo, an ice cream vendor searching for his lost
mother. The movie was hailed by the father of independent cinema
Kidlat Tahimik for capturing the true sentiments and longings of
ordinary Filipinos. In fact, Tahimik, one of the jurors in the second
Cinemalaya filmfest, handed his special Bamboo Camera award to this
digital film produced by Mediarevolution Film Productions in
cooperation with Tadpole, Inc.

Lending full support to the talented Bais are veteran
movie and television actors like Ricky Davao, Caridad Sanchez, Nanette
Inventor, Rez Cortez, Nonie Buencamino, January Isaac and "Little Big
Star" child sensation Mica Torre and 2006 Singapore filmfest best
actor winner Elijah Castillo.

A surprising twist to this supporting cast is the unusual love team of
Cortez and Inventor, whose funny portrayal of single middle-aged
people looking for the love of their lives elicited wild cheers from
the crowd in last year's CCP run.

Set in a Tondo tenement, the movie unveils insights on
love, faith, trust and the beauty of life despite the hard times. As
Bais explains: "This is the kind of film for the whole family. It has
funny and wacky moments and at the same time, dramatic highlights that
are sure to tug the hearts of viewers. Moviegoers will also be treated
to a set of original Filipino songs that will surely delight them."

The theme song of "Saan Nagtatago si Happiness?" written
by Chi Datu, arranged by Arnold Buena and performed by Nanette
Inventor is nominated Best Original Song in the coming Golden Screen
Awards.
