Manila, Philippines – Pa-London sa England si Andrea Brillantes–not for a vacay but for her movie Laya to compete there.
Nagkaroon kasi ng world premiere sa Rio Cinema doon nitong November 7 ang nasabing pelikula.
Ito’y bilang bahagi ng Women and the World International Film Festival
(WWIFF) 2026.
Nakatakdang lumaban ang Laya sa
Feature Fiction Competition.
Ito ang ating tanging kalahok, na makikipaglaban sa Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Canada, USA at United Kingdom.
Nagkaroon ito ng special spotlight sa opening gala night nitong November 5.
Andrea along with the ambassador and jury representatives delivered a speech: “Thank you for championing women’s stories in cinema. We need more spaces like this film festival–spaces that put women at the center of creativity.
“Laya means freedom in Filipino. And I believe we all deserve to be free; free to love, free to live and free to create.”
Dito sa atin, sa November 25 pa ipalalabas ang Laya.
Ito’y mula sa direksyon ni Sigrid Andrea P. Bernardo–also starring JC Santos and Anthony Jennings.
