Sarah
Mae, a 12-year-old school girl, is the grand daughter of the last
remaining chanter of the Panay Bukidnon tribe. But instead of learning
their culture, she is obsessed with pop culture and readies herself for
the visit of a sensational TV star to her school. As she perfects her
dance, her grandfather, Lolo Ramon suffers the onset of dementia. As
her Lolo starts losing his precious memories, Sarah Mae is tasked to
help him complete the last of the remaining 12 epics, their tribe’s
vanishing tradition.
The surprise for me in this year QCinema 2017 Circle competition. Its charming leads and story is the edge of this film that surely captivate the hearts of the audience. The film lets you appreciate more of our cultural values and embrace our grandparents to make them feel our love and their importance in our life. The simplicity of the film makes its more powerful to deliver its message.
My Verdict: 3.5/5
