Eventually, she felt like she was no longer in the cinema, as if she was transported to the island itself, following intently the story of the characters.

“It’s simple, direct, raw and real,” Gonzaga said. “No big gestures, just pure and heartfelt scenes that speak straight to your heart.”

In this day and age when we want everything fast, easy and instant. Watching the movie SIARGAO taught me to be still, be patient and allow the story to grow and progress until I no longer realize I’m in the cinema but on this beautiful island and I’m following the love story of every character. The film is well written by @anjpessumal. It’s simple, direct, raw and real. No big gestures, just pure and heartfelt scenes that speak straight to your heart. I fell in love with the movie maybe because I know where the directors heart is and where he is coming from. You are more inspired in this film and I can’t wait one day for Seve to see what his daddy worked hard for. Congratulations team SIARGAO.❤️ #TakeMeToSiargao
