KontrAdiksyon is an action-packed movie that tackles the country’s controversial war on drugs.
It was written and directed by Palanca Award-winning writer-director Njel de Mesa, who also wrote the screenplay for Cinemalaya 2017’s Best Film “Respeto.”
KontraAdiksyon serves as the comeback film of newly relaunched Bell Films, the film production arm of Universal Records Philippines, after a 23-year hiatus.
Bell Films produced the 1974 film “Twin First for Justice” starring Vilma Santos, “Sige… Ihataw Mo” (1994) and its sequel “Ibigay Mo ng Todong-Todo” (1995).
KontrAdiksyon starring Kris Bernal, Katrina Halili, Paolo Paraiso, John Estrada, among others is expected to premiere this 2018. /cbb
