With the new selection of Filipino films and series available for streaming, you surely have a lot to choose from. With that said, here are some recommendations for every mood or personality type you’re in for your binge watching period:
You want a mind-boggling storyline
If you are looking for a narrative that involves playing tricks with the mind of characters, Nocebo might just be the next best watch for you. The film touches on folklorical elements with deep intentions, and this will surely give you something to ponder with yourself and talk about with your friends. In the movie, award-winning Filipino actress Chai Fonacier offers her healing abilities to an ailing woman, but it can’t just be as simple as that.
You’re in for some friendship fun
After a long day at work, some comical relief is a good break from all the stress. Having that coupled with a story on friendship is definitely worth your time. Partners In Crime starring Vice Ganda and Ivana Alawi may make you laugh, but it will also touch your heart for its take on relationships.
You are interested in history
Whether you have an affinity for all things in the past or you just want to try watching new material, Maria Clara at Ibarra should be on your watchlist. The historical drama offers a refreshing perspective on Rizal’s novels through the eyes of a Gen Z nursing student played by Barbie Forteza. It’s high time you get on the hype and see the series for itself.
You miss the romantic-comedy feel
What’s not to love about this feel-good genre? If you have exhausted all the classics from the 2000s, why not check out some Filipino films, too? One of the newest movies under the rom-com genre is Labyu With An Accent starring Jodi Sta. Maria and Coco Martin. This talented tandem brings a new flavor of kilig on screen and we’re all here for it!
These movies and series are all available for streaming on Netflix.
