Brillante Ma Mendoza’s Unique Filmmaking Style in ‘Until She Remembers’

Director Brillante Ma Mendoza’s latest work, a rather soft and warm film, far different from what he usually directs, ‘Until She Remembers’ works because of how good its stars are, namely Charo Santos-Concio, Barbie Forteza and Boots Anson Roa-Rodrigo. And with his “no script” filmmaking style, the story can evolve into something more, depending on how the cast interprets their characters.

‘UNTIL SHE REMEMBERS’ opens in cinemas February 25, 2026.

Both hilarious and heartwarming. The tandem of Pokwang and Domingo under the direction of Jun Lana offers different types of comedy and some will surprise you.
