ANG HULING ARAW NG LINGGO opens March 21 in SM Digital Cinema nationwide. Starring Johnny Delgado, Jennifer Sevilla, Baron Geisler, Monica Llamas, Arnold Reyes, Angeli Bayani and Ms. Boots Anson-Roa. Written and directed by Nick Olanka.
ANG HULING ARAW NG LINGGO
Synopsis
ANG HULING ARAW NG LINGGO spans a week in a life of seven individuals with interconnected narratives. Domeng is involved in networking or multi-level marketing business and plans to encourage his estranged daughter Luna to join in this unscrupulous business. Luna is abandoned by her husband and son so she asks help from her mother Aling Tess. Aling Tess is a land lady who lives alone and fancies a young male boarder named Kulas. Kulas is a grocery store employee who aspires to become a store manager to impress Julie. Julie is a laundry shop attendant who is obsessed with a male costumer named Brian. Brian is a nurse in a local hospital who wants to work abroad so he persuades his girlfriend Sally to provide for his "fixer" fees. An accounting graduate who failed to pass the board exam for two consecutive years, Sally enters Domeng's networking business in the hopes of proving her worth. When she found out that networking is a scam Sally plans to take revenge on Domeng. The film illustrates the interconnectedness of our lives, a cycle of random events in which the decisions we make are as important as the choices we didn't take.

SIPAT: Mendiola (31 mins)
From the First Quarter Storm in the 1970s to the
Mendiola massacre in 1987 to the state's Calibrated
Preemptive Response policy two years ago--from the
very start, the road to Mendiola has cradled the very
centers of conflict. This work is a documentary about
Mendiola's significance as a symbolic and actual site
of struggle, the stretch of road a tug-of-war for the
Palace several hundred meters away. Treading through
Mendiola is still a great risk, but a necessary one
nonetheess, for to look directly at the eye of the
storm is to have the strength to confront those in
power. On the road to Mendiola, one can tread across
the history of a peoples' continuing struggle for
change.
March 14 (Wednesday)
Films by Visual Artists
Kaloy Olavides: DIRECTORY (Curated by Poklong Anading)
Directory is a two-piece work yet which is
interdependent on each other. The first of the piece
is a video projection of a hand with a pen writing an
instruction. The video is shot in slow motion, running
approximately for 40 minutes. The other half of the
work can be seen after the whole video will be
screened.
DIRECTORY is a critique directed at artworks that are
bound only to the place where they stand or are put
in. An example is that most paintings are treated
according only to the boundaries of the image inside
the canvas. It's idea is to go beyond the piece; thus
creating a new set of pieces but which, conversely,
rely on each other.
March 15 (Thursday)
Manuel Ocampo: Manuel 's Selective Up-chunks
March 16 (Friday)
Romeo Candido: KA-AMULAN and other SHORTS
The ROMEO CANDIDO MiX TAPE (49 mins)
An exploration of culture through music, dance, drama
and media. Features works such as:
1. a sunday in the park (2003) - a Hi 8 video
featuring Rona Figueroa. A beautiful actress, singer,
writer, with Broadway credits and a penchant for
longsword. The music plays a variation of the main
kulingtan theme from the Singkil dance. The work
documents Candido's experimentation with potential
filmmaking techniques, including cheap in-camera
effects, for an arnis film he was working on for the
last three years.
2. Meditations For the Restless (2001)- Candido's
first work to explore editing within a static image
and the title track for his first solo E.P. "I was
just learning final cut pro, on my G3, and discovered
freeze frames, 1 frame cuts, dissolves, color grading.
I started at 6 in the evening and finished 6 in the
morning," he says of this.
3. KUTTIN KANDY (2001)- Candido's first project
edited with FCP. A feature on Kuttin Kandy, one of the
first and most feared female turntablists in the U.S
and an ate to the thriving Filipino/a hip hop scene.
4. ST JAMESTOWN trailer and excerpt (2004) - A one
hour television pilot about the most ethnically
diverse neighborhood in Toronto Canada, featuring a
cast composed of actual residents from the area and
shot during a time when the neighborhood was
experiencing terrible conflicts between youth and law
enforcement.
5. Fool 4 Love (2007) -Footage from Candido's first
children's commercial shot in the Philippines.
6. Lilac Cana (2002) -An exercise in overexposure and
shadows, featuring the Filipino-Canadian artist who
broke into the classical music scene in Toronto in
2000.
7. Snowhere (2007) - A DIY video shot recently during
Candido's first winter back in Canada in three years.
8. The Kuya Medley (2003) - A docu-musical of the soul
group KUYA performing in the executive offices of
record labels in New York and hustling for a deal.
Despite the undeniable talent, the industry couldn't
commit to an all-Pinoy soul group. They had many
supporters, from Wycleff, to Babyface, to Pharell, to
Timbaland and beyond. Also an exercise in live music
editing.
9. Purification by Fire (2002) - Members from The
Fiesta Filipina Dance Troupe of Canada backstage
before a performance in Pittsburg. This is an excerpt
from DANCERS! PICK UP YOUR BAMBOOS! a 26 minute
documentary about the history of the oldest Filipino
Folkdance company in Canada.
10. Babylon is Falling Trailer (2001) - a spec trailer
of a martial arts movie that was never, ever made.
11. Lolo's Child Music Video and excerpt (2001) - The
very first Filipino feature film from Canada, and up
to now, the only one. From Candido's Ishmael Bernal
award -winning feature length film Lolo's Child. A
film about dealing with death and domestic violence in
an immigrant home.
12. Ka-Amulan (2002) - An impressionistic piece based
on the kaamulan Filipino folkdance. Another excerpt
from the documentary Dancers! Pick Up Your Bamboos!
13. Ang Pamana : The Inheritance extended trailer
(2006) - This is Candido's first feature film to be
shot in the Philippines. A supernatural folktale about
what happens when a balikbayan inherits land in deep
dark Bulacan, shot in 35mm dolby digital.

Kidlat Tahimik: TURUMBA
Turumba (1984)
Set in a tiny Philippine village, Tahimik's Turumba
focuses on one family which traditionally made
papier-mache animals to sell during the Turumba
religious festivities. When they get a huge order, the
whole life of the family is changed, as Tahimik wryly
observes the "creation of the proletariat."
Perfumed Nightmare (1977)
The story of the filmmaker's awakening from his long
nightmare, the lotus land of a third world naif's
entrancement by the promises of American technological
society.
Held Mondays to Saturdays at Mag:net Café Katipunan,

"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.

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.

ROME AND JULIET returns to Indiesine
ROME & JULIET Makes a Return Engagement in Galleria
starting March 7
After its sensational Valentine's week box office
performance, Cinema One Originals' ROME & JULIET gets
an encore theatrical run starting March 7 at the
Robinsons Galleria's Indie Sine Theater.
Starring the daring Mylene Dizon and Andrea del
Rosario, Rome & Juliet was one of the seven chosen
entries in last year's Cinema One Originals Digital
Movie Festival. It also stars Rafael Rosell, Mico
Palanca, Liza Dino, Glydel Mercado and featuring Ms.
Tessie Tomas. The film garnered both acclaim and talks
of controversy for its intriguing plotline which

revolves around the idea that love knows no rules.
When Juliet (Andrea del Rosario), a conservative
pre-school teacher hires Rome (Mylene Dizon), a
liberated wedding planner, for her nuptials, they
become close and develop a romance that becomes a huge
scandal after Juliet's groom (the sexy Rafael Rosell)
and their families discover their affair. Not long
after, Juliet is driven away by her parents and gets
into an accident that puts her in a coma. Tracing the
reasons and depths why two women fell unexpectedly in
love make Rome & Juliet a romance that is both
touching and thought-provoking.
Mylene Dizon won a much-deserved Best Actress trophy
in the Cinema One Originals Digital Movie Festival and
Competition held last November. Co-star Andrea Del Rosario also
impressed movie watchers and observers and was nominated for Best
Actress at the Golden Screen Awards. The movie also got major
category nominations in the upcoming 2007 Star Awards for Movies such
as Movie Actress of the Year for Andrea del Rosario,Movie Director of
the Year for Connie S.A. Macatuno,and Digital Movie of the Year.
Its first successful two-week theatrical run at
Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Metro East and at
Robinsons Place Ermita Manila precipitated this return
theatrical engagement showing at the Robinsons Galleria.

5 March (Monday)
Ingmar Bergman: CRIES AND WHISPERS
Cries and Whispers
(1972, Sweden, 91mins)
Ingmar Bergman's dream play is set in a manor house at
the turn of the century where a spinster in her late
30s is dying. Her two sisters have come to attend her,
and they watch and wait, along with a peasant servant.
The movie is built out of a series of emotionally
charged images that express inner stress, and Bergman
handles them with the fluidity of a master. Superbly
photographed by in a style suggesting Edvard Munch,
and with blood-red backgrounds, the film is smooth and
hypnotic; it has oracular power and the pull of a
dream. Yet there's a 19th-century dullness at the
heart of it. Each sister represents a different aspect
of woman—woman viewed as the Other—and the film
mingles didacticism with erotic mystery.
6 March (Tuesday)
TUDLA Productions and KODAO Productions
DA DOU SAI MAU (Junk WTO)
January 2006 | 28:40 mins
(To be presented by Raymund Villanueva)

Kong streets against the World Trade Organization's
Third Ministerial Meeting (2005). Bayan Muna Rep.

7 March (Wednesday)
From Conrado's Cabinet:
Notebook on Cities and Clothes
1991 | 80 mins | Road Movies Filmproduction GmBH
Berlin
German film maker Wim Wenders engages design maverick
Yohji Yamamoto in an articulate dialogue about the
rootless quality of our identities, cities and
fashion. Wenders incorporates a dizzying,nearly
discordant,and highly inventive array of video images
invading, breaking down and blocking out clear, crisp
film shots. The film is both a delightful and
despairing tour through the 20th century systemof
visual language with Wenders as a charming
philosophical guide.
8 March (Thursday)
Mia Buenaventura’s Short Films
Leon
A 7-minute experimental film that suggests a possible
ending to “The Prodigal Son” parable. The film
centers on the good son and how he resolves sibling
rivalry and sibling jealousy issues. Whereas evil can
turn to good, the good can just as easily turn to
evil. Ronnie Lazaro stars in the leading role.
Gantsilyo
The narrative DV movie tells of a grandmother whose
elaborate knitted creations affect the lives of her
family. Armed with her needles and balls of yarn,
Grandma employs time-weathered wisdom and loving hands
to heal hearts with every stitch. Gloria Romero plays
the lead role.
Mia Buenaventura is no newcomer in the indie movement.
Largely committed to the short film format, she has
done several shorts since college at the Ateneo where
she took up AB Communications. She wrote and directed
“Leon”, in 16-mm format and a Gawad-CCP winner, while
she was at Mowelfund. Her first narrative DV is
“Gantsilyo” starring Gloria Romero. “Gantsilyo” has
been screened at the “Pelikula at Lipunan Festival”
and at the U.P. Film Institute during the “Women
Filmmakers Festival”. The film was a Cinemalaya entry
and currently nominated for best short film in the
Cineaste Film Association of the Phils.’ Annie Awards.
Mia also did several AVPs and past Clients
include Coca-Cola and Gillette Philippines. A new
short film project is lined-up for 2007.
9 March (Friday)
Eman Dela Cruz: SARONGBANGGI
Sarongbanggi (One Night)
04 mins. color/sound NTSC video
An intense encounter between an aging prostitute and a
sixteen-year old boy in a night of seduction,
connections and revelations.
The night begins... A boy is celebrating his sixteenth
birthday with his rowdy group of friends who all agree
- there's no better gift to give him than his first
sexual experience. They book him a night with a
prostitute. The night grows deeper… The boy strikes an
unusual connection with a sensual but older woman.
What starts out casually turns intimate and
surprisingly tender. In this most unusual one night
stand the teenage boy loses his virginity and the more
experienced, toughened woman rediscovers her
vulnerability.
Sarong Banggi features a most memorable and riveting
performance by the luminous Jaclyn Jose, one of the
Philippines' truly great and most awarded actresses
(and who’s iconic fallen woman role in films like
“White Slavery,” and “Private Show” inspired and
informed the role of Jaclyn in this film) and an
exciting star turn by first-time actor Angelo Ilagan.
Written and directed by: Emmanuel A. Dela Cruz
Official Selection: ImaginAsian, New York and Cine
