Orosman at Zafira

i met this guy the other day who was involved with this production.

it's a modern take of one of balagtas' stories... of course the only one we know is the then-tedious-but-probably-brilliant florante't laura.

written in the 1850's, the story is ahead of its time with undertones on religious tolerance and the empowerment of women.

here's a teaser:

it's a modern take on a filipino classic... so think style of leo and claire's romeo & juliet.

read more about it here.

let's watch!!!

flip, flop, filipino

a few nights ago, i received these special filipinas collection havaianas:

it was the company's way of honoring "filipino icons who inspire other filipinos." *touched*

speaking of filipino, i just remembered sharing with you our independence-day dvd-day that you missed.

although the movie was japanese, the snacks were all pinoy.

even the remote control was "themed"

the theme went on until merienda time...

with matching chismosa palengkera doll.

mabuhay!
