A Powerful Movie Musical for All Generations: Nasaan Si Hesus? Opens in SM Cinemas on December 3, 2025

The timeless question of faith and human resilience takes centerstage this December as Nasaan Si Hesus?, a heartfelt and thought-provoking movie musical, premieres exclusively in SM Cinemas on December 3, 2025.

Produced by Mrs. Lourdes “Bing” Pimentel and directed by acclaimed filmmaker Dennis N. Marasigan, this cinematic adaptation revisits the beloved long-running musical created by Mrs. Pimentel and writer-director Nestor U. Torre—now reimagined for today’s audiences.

Set in the humble village of Sto. Niño, Nasaan Si Hesus? follows the intertwined lives of ordinary people searching for meaning, forgiveness, and the presence of God amid the struggles they face. The story unfolds through a rich tapestry of characters:

• Roger, Brenda, and their daughter Cindy, whose once-ideal household begins to shake as sin and consequences creep into their lives.

• Fr. Carlo, a parish priest forced to confront his own temper, weaknesses, and vulnerability.

• Sister Remedios, whose compassion leads her to care for a group of street children—despite resistance from the cautious novice Sister Alma.

• Lucy, a single mother fighting for survival as poverty tempts her down a dangerous path.

• And the wider community, including those oppressed by domineering employers like Mrs. Varona or manipulated by opportunistic leaders such as Cong. Caramba.
  
  

  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

Through their individual journeys, the villagers of Sto. Niño must confront their own choices and discover the path toward healing and redemption.

Nasaan Si Hesus? features a stellar ensemble cast led by Janno Gibbs, Rachel Alejandro, Geneva Cruz, Jeffrey Hidalgo, Marissa Sanchez, Salome Salvi, Via Antonio, Chloe Jenna, and Cecil Paz, with standout new talents Rachel Gabreza and Giani Sarita, plus the special participation of Bembol Roco and Jerald Napoles. The film is elevated by a collection of original songs written by Mrs. Bing Pimentel, adding emotional depth and musical resonance to every moment.

“Nasaan si Hesus? is not just about the problems we face,” shares Mrs. Pimentel. “It is about our longing to find God in the everyday challenges of life—and discovering that the answers may be closer than we think.”

A moving reflection on community, compassion, and the enduring search for faith, Nasaan Si Hesus? is produced by Balin Remejus Inc. and Great Media Productions, Inc.
