After a triumphant run at the 2025 Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival, the deeply resonant film Habang Nilalamon ng Hydra ang Kasaysayan is finally set for its wide theatrical release on June 3.
Beyond the grit and the shadows, a new story is stepping up to make sure we don’t just “forget and move on.” “Drug War: A Conspiracy of Silence” is way more than your typical crime show—it’s a deep look into the Filipino soul, reflecting the scars of a time many find hard to talk about.

At its heart, Midnight Girls shows that for these women, working was never about themselves. They aren’t doing this for ego or fun; they’re doing it for their families, their kids, and their futures.

JM Ibarra is so good in the dramatic scenes. You can feel that he knows his character well; he knows how RR feels and he knows what RR wants and how his character will move forward. Fyang Smith is effective and effortless in the comedic scenes; you’d be questioning yourself if some of the funny scenes were actually scripted or not. The way their styles clash and click at the same time is what makes the movie work; JM provides the emotional anchor while Fyang brings the fun parts.
