The film festival circuit has been a triumphant path so far for “Bitter Melon”, the film by acclaimed director H.P. Mendoza which was chosen last year for funding and support by Cinematografo Originals.  Last Saturday, the dramedy was screened at Asia Society as part of the official closing presentation of the prestigious 41st Asian American International Film Festival (AAIFF 41).  In spite of a very busy weekend in New York with ongoing summer festivals, the screening drew an enthusiastic multicultural audience that had an animated Q&A with Mendoza and the cast members.

Cignal Entertainment's "Ang Babaeng Allergic Sa Wifi" Examinse Love In The Time Of The Internet

In this digital age, being single is one thing, but living a life without the internet?

That’s almost like living in the the Dark Ages or being in solitary confinement-- minus the jail bars.

As much as we hate to admit it, we eat, breath, and live our lives on the internet and the only time we go offline is when we need to get some sleep. 

We even manage most of our relationships online, and for a lot of people, those “likes” and “comments” have become a gauge of their friendships. 

But what if you suddenly can’t use any form of technology? Will you be doomed to be alone forever?

Fun and bedlam reigns in the kingdom of the “Kusina Kings”

TFC at the Movies kicks off the month of August with a buffet of comedic proportions in “Kusina Kings” (Kitchen Kings) which starts screening August 2 in Brunei and Papua New Guinea, August 3 in Saipan, the U.S. and Canada, and August 9 in the Middle East.

"Kusina Kings" tells the story of forever best friends Ronnie (Zanjoe Marudo) and Benjie (Empoy Marquez), who have been buddies through good times and bad. Benjie is the chef-entrepreneur, while Ronnie is a klutz in the kitchen. As their restaurant struggles to take-off, Benjie takes on the Kusina Kings Challenge where they will be competing with rival contender Gian Nyeam (Ryan Bang).

A pinch of culinary blunders, a dash of bizarre occurrences, a sprinkle of naughty humor, and a generous serving of comedic genius make a recipe for a sidesplitting, gratifying movie. This comedic masterpiece is helmed by Victor Villanueva who directed the critically-acclaimed indie film ‘Patay na si Hesus’ (Jesus is Dead).
