“Ang Manghuhula”, another film about a fortune teller, received a grade of “A” from the Cinema Evaluations Board.
Ang Manghuhula is a film by Paolo Alessandro Herras (Rekados, Lambanog) starring Eula Valdez in the lead role.
SYNOPSIS: An outcast and failed fortuneteller (Eula Valdes) returns home to save her daughter (Glaiza De Castro) from a fate she herself escaped – the town’s next fortuneteller; a fate handed down from mother (Chanda Romero) to daughter. She finds her daughter caught in debt and the squabble of a petty syndicate (Emilio Garcia, Pinky Amador) running a band of fortunetellers (Bella Flores) for the unwary, desperate answer-seekers. The only way to save her daughter is to embrace a gift she has vowed to give up; the ability to see the future no matter how bleak and inescapable.
The film, which is supported by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), is coming to selected cinemas on 09-09-09 (September 9, 2009).
