We were able to catch an advance screening of Prime Cruz’s Ngayon Kaya, a film at least two years in the making! John, Princess and Jim give their thoughts on the film in this mini-sized episode of Third World Cinema Club. What did they think of the #PauNine tandem? What music remind you of your college years? Ano kaya yung sa kanila? Enjoy yet another fun discussion on Philippine cinema with the gang. Also, watch out for our exclusive interview with the film’s lead stars Janine Gutierrez and Paulo Avelino on the next episode.
About the film
Ngayon Kaya tells the story of AM and Harold, two college friends who meet again in a common friend’s wedding. We then see the next few scenes unfold their history as friends and as almost lovers are then revealed. Will they, or won’t they?
This also marks as the first time since the pandemic that the three have met in person! So there’s definitely a lot of laughs, a lot of chikkas involved in the outtakes of this episode, and a lot of references on music and some of Prime and Jen’s previous films.
