It hasn’t happened in a very long time: Vilma Santos, Philippine Entertainment’s revered actress, starring in back-to-back Metro Manila Film Festival entries. Last year, she drew crowds back into cinemas following the long pandemic when she reunited with her favorite leading man, Christopher de Leon, in the poignant love story, “When I Met You in Tokyo.” She even bagged the Best Actress award at the Gabi ng Parangal for her heart-wrenching performance.
This year, Ate Vi leads a powerhouse cast in another big-budgeted MMFF entry from Mentorque Productions — the riveting psychological thriller “Uninvited,” where she takes on a role unlike anything she has done before: A mother seeking justice for her daughter in a chillingly high-stakes 24-hour window.
