Rafa Siguion Reyna plays as leader of the fish pen boys in Baklad.
Baklad is an official entry to ToFarm Film Festival 2017
Starring: Ronwaldo Martin, Elora Españo, Rafa Siguion Reyna
Written By: Sigfried Barros-Sanchez
Directed By: Topel Lee
Baklad is a coming of age story of a fishpen boy who is learning to dream big,
triggered by his sexual awakening from his boss’ new lover. He starts to
find ways to elope with the woman. But his dreams will only produce
devastating results, not only for him but also for people around him.
This is the story of one of the most neglected people in the
Philippine workforce and society - the fishpen boys. They give us the
fish we eat every day, but we never know that like the fishes, they
are also drowning in sorrow and dreams of breaking free from the nets
of poverty and swim towards freedom.
ToFarm Film Festival 2017 runs from July 12-18 at SM Megamall, SM Manila, Greenbelt 1, Gateway, Robinsons Galleria & Robinsons Metro East
