MMFF Guide: My Little Bossings

Bookkeeper takes in his millionaire-boss’ son to elude the bad guys. His niece, on the other hand, adopts a street kid from an orphanage that has shut down. Living under one roof results in madness and mayhem for the kids, who are polar opposites. Sotto observes that the two kids had fun during the shoot. “They laughed a lot on the set. They ate and got tired at the same time. We were always happy while working,” says Sotto, who’s also a coproducer. The comedian says he wanted to do something different after years of presenting fantasy flicks in the festival. Bayani San Diego Jr.
