ABOUT Rogelio Braga's ANG MGA MANANAHI
Set in an ‘unnamed’ place somewhere in the South on the heydays of the government’s war against the Bangsa Moro freedom fighters. A story of how four Muslim women perform the act of bravery on their bare hands and compassionate souls. “Walang kapayapaan kasi walang kalayaan…” Ang Mga Mananahi is a celebration on the triumphs of human spirit against the adversity of a cruel and ruthless power and a homage to those beautiful thoughts that keep ordinary people together to stand for freedom and lasting peace.
