The Independent film “Magtiwala
Ka: A Super Typhoon Yolanda Story”
mirrors Globe Telecom’s disaster relief efforts during the
worst typhoon in Philippine history which affected thousands of Filipino lives particularly in Eastern Visayas.
“Magtiwala Ka” shows actual video footages of the typhoon’s aftermath especially how relief
distribution was conducted amidst the people’s struggle to meet their basic
needs such as food, water, and shelter.
Movie actress Keanna
Reeves leads the cast of the movie as it presents the challenges of a Yolanda survivor and
how she was able to rise above the challenges.
Inspiration for the
film stems from the actual experience of Director Joric Raquiza who also lost a
home and a resort he saved up for so many years. “For me, it’s only a material
loss. I am grateful to God that my
family is still alive. I would also want to thank the people who endorsed this
film and believe in it,” he said.
The movie is presented
by Globe and will be shown on July 16 at SM Cinemas, Robinson’s Movieworld, and
Ever Commonwealth and Ortigas theaters. Advanced screening will be held on July
14.
