Ang Guro Kong 'Di Marunong Magbasa Teaser - Cinemalaya 2017 Official Entry







 Volunteer teachers from the city are afraid to teach in small, far-flung barrios because of the threat of the on-going war between the military and the rebels. This prompts Aaquil (Alfred Vargas), a farmer, to assume the work of the educator in their community. His students, some orphaned by the war, are unaware that Aaquil is actually illiterate. How has he managed to keep them from finding the truth? The story depicts how the cycle of anger and vengeance continues when education is ignored and neglected.


 Starring: Alfred Vargas, Miggs Cuaderno, Marc Justin Alvarez, Micko Laurente, Lou Veloso, Mon Confiado, James Blanco, Loren Burgos, and Kiko Matos


Written and Directed By: Perry Escaño
