Jerrold Tarog of “Heneral Luna” fame explores the horrors of the mind in “Bliss”. Following an accident on set, actress Jane Ciego (Iza Calzado) who had always wanted to star in a critically acclaimed movie is secluded to avoid attention from the press. As days go by, she descends into insanity as she experiences horrors and madness while being trapped in her own home. The film competed in Japan at the 12th Osaka Asian Film Festival in March 2017 to critical acclaim, where Calzado also garnered the Yakushi Pearl Award for Best Performer.
In this thriller film, a busload of farmers en route to Manila went missing in the province. But all eyes were diverted to the case of killing a Philippine eagle, an endangered species locally known as Haribon. Mirroring real disturbing events in recent history, “Birdshot” became the first Filipino film released worldwide by Netflix. Watch the movie here.
