A special love story, a love triangle, a tale of falling out of love, and a story of unconditional love, the final four official entries for the 51st Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) were finally revealed earlier today, October 10, at the University of Makati Auditorium.
Leading the last four films under the Finished Film category is Nathan Studios’ “I’m Perfect.” The film tells a special love story between two adults with Down syndrome, starring Sylvia Sanchez, Lorna Tolentino, Janice de Belen, Tonton Gutierrez, Joey Marquez, and Zaijan Jaranilla, and introducing Kristel Go and Earl Amaba. “I’m Perfect” is directed by Sigrid Andrea Bernardo.
Next on the lineup is the romance film “Love You So Bad,” starring Bianca De Vera, Will Ashley, and Dustin Yu. The movie follows the story of Savanah (Bianca), a sassy, confident, and unapologetically independent college student determined to live life on her own terms. Her journey takes an unexpected turn when she finds herself torn between two very different men.
“Love You So Bad” is a collaboration between ABS-CBN Film Productions, GMA Pictures, and Regal Entertainment Inc., directed by Mae Cruz-Alviar.
The third film, “Unmarry,” tells the story of Celine, a wife who seeks annulment from her husband Stephen. Their paths cross once again at the office of Atty. Jackie, a lawyer and online host who gives legal advice through her online show. Amid legal battles and chance encounters, Celine meets Ivan, a man also seeking annulment from his wife Maya. The two form an unexpected friendship that helps them heal from their pasts, and as they grow closer, the possibility of new love begins to unfold.
“Unmarry” stars Angelica Panganiban, Zanjoe Marudo, and Eugene Domingo, with special participation from Tom Rodriguez and Solenn Heussaff. The film is produced by Cineko and Quantum Films and directed by Jeffrey Jeturian.
Rounding up the lineup is the much-anticipated reunion film “Bar Boys: After School.” Set years after their law school days, the story follows Torran, Eric, Chris, and Josh as they navigate midlife challenges marked by burnout, heartbreak, and a loss of purpose. When they learn that their former professor, Justice Hernandez, has fallen seriously ill, the four friends reunite to help their ailing mentor. Through this reunion, they are forced to confront their life choices and ultimately rediscover their purpose.
“Bar Boys: After School” stars Carlo Aquino, Rocco Nacino, Enzo Pineda, Kean Cipriano, and Ms. Odette Khan. The film is directed by Kip Oebanda and produced by 901 Studios.
These four films will join “Call Me Mother,” “Rekonek,” “Manila’s Finest,” and “Shake, Rattle & Roll: Evil Origins” this December 25 for the much-anticipated 51st Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) promising a diverse lineup of stories that celebrate love, friendship, courage, and Filipino creativity on the big screen.
