What else do you expect? Keep pinchin’ our staple foods, and I guarantee your gonna see a bunch of folks throwin’ down outside of your local supplier.

My Mama called me lastnight asking what my plans were for the upcoming weekend. When I told her nothing, she asked me out to a Tagalog film that’ll be screening in my area. I had no idea about it so she hipped to to it: Caregiver, starring Sharon Cuneta. I’m usually hesitant when it comes to ABS-CBN productions for their lack of depicting the real conditions of the Philippines, especially when it involves a the sappy drama actress. But this movie plays into the 3,000 Filipinos who leave the homeland a day to become Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), so I’m a bit more interested. Plus, my Mom invited me to watch it with her because, as she says, “It’s a little bit like her own story”.

Stay tuned for my review after I catch a screening of Caregiver…
