Description
Summary:Kasambahays have become greatly recognized in the Filipino familial setting however, it is also evident that the concept remains a gray area in terms of their protrayals in media. It has become a trend for most kasambahays to remain intact with their profession as it cross over their personal lives where it involves intimacy and certain attachments as time passes by which is why the proponents found it an interesting topic to center on and further translate into film. The proponents aim to generate a deeper appreciation from the audience of the ups and downs of the profession and to express how the relationships formed in the household create such deep connections, even if they are not bound by blood. It is a film following both the old and the young--specifically the end and the start of a certain chapter in their lives. As with every beginning comes an ending, and Manang is a film that aims to embrace both.
