(SPOT.ph) The recent rainy season has us dusting off our jackets and daydreaming about bright, sunny weather. Enter Apocalypse Child, an indie film that will take you straight to the picturesque shores of Baler.
The 2015 film was originally an entry (and now Best Picture winner) in QCinema International Film Festival. It stars Sid Lucero as Ford, whose free-spirited lifestyle is shattered when his past and interesting parentage come back to haunt him.
Directed by Mario Cornejo, Apocalypse Child has won multiple awards from the Film Academy of the Philippines and Gawad Urian. It was also recently screened at the New York Asian Film Festival, where it was well-received by critics.
If you're raring to take a trip to laidback Baler, this emotional film is probably the closest you'll get...for now. It finally hits major cinemas October 26.
