Praying for all the journalists risking their lives tonight just so the public can see the truth of what’s happening in the Senate.
There is no substitute for a free press. No alternative to people willing to stand in the middle of chaos so the country can witness the truth in real time.
Ikaw din ba yung tipo ng taong nag- eenjoy kapag alone? I mean, if you like to walk home alone after work, you like to stay home alone friday nights, workout alone, you just like quiet and time to yourself. Wala lang, you like being alone but you hate being lonely.
What Rory Quintos’s Anak (2000) understands is that Filipino realism is never just about restraint, but more so about emotional truth that is performed out loud. Filipino realism IS melodrama.
This monologue by Claudine Barretto, 20 years young when this was filmed: perfection
Normalize this by age 25
1. Talk slow
2. Be clear
3. Never mumble
4. Don't interrupt
5. Listen twice more than you talk

We filmed the crime in 2021.
In 2026, we’re releasing the evidence.
I remember shooting "About Us But Not About Us" during lockdown, and how suffocating that time felt. We worked behind masks and strict protocols, always paranoid about distance. It felt restrictive at the time. But looking back, that claustrophobia was the right backdrop for a story about secrets and a stolen manuscript that refuses to stay buried.
But the story didn’t want to stay on screen.
On February 14, "About Us But Not About Us" returns as a live stage production. Romnick Sarmenta and Elijah Canlas are stepping back into their roles, with Epi Quizon joining the mix to complicate the dynamic even further. We’re taking a story born in isolation and putting it in a room full of people, unfolding in real time.
This time, you aren’t just watching. You’re being asked to judge.
The novel at the center of the conflict, Teorya ng mga Tanong, now exists outside the play. It will be available in the theatre lobby, credited to Lancelot Guinto, the student at the center of the story.
Come see the play.
Take the evidence home.
Is it fiction?
Is it confession?
That part is up to you.

Basta take your time getting to know people. Don’t be so excited to connect. People have so much hidden intentions, hidden toxicity, hidden personality traits! They will do everything to impress you before showing themselves. Say NO sometimes. Protect your mental health.
