And So It Begins | Official Trailer

In a decades-long nonfiction saga of the Philippines, director Ramona Diaz presents the latest chapter on her homeland as the despotic reign of President Rodrigo Duterte is coming to an end. And So It Begins proffers unbridled access to all the key players in the months leading up to the country’s 2022 presidential election. With her keen observational eye and deep knowledge of the socio-political history and landscape, Diaz continues to find her own forms of storytelling as political disruption.

Taking place in the thick of the COVID-19 pandemic, 'AND SO IT BEGINS' is a shape-shifting story of the raucous collective act of joy expressed in a quirky resistance movement that pits itself against the haunting specter of increasing autocracy. Weaving together multiple narratives against the backdrop of a gloves-off campaign for the most powerful office in the land, what emerges is a dazzling cinematic portrait of a beleaguered nation fighting for its very soul.

Featuring Leni Robredo, Maria Ressa, Bongbong Marcos, Sara Duterte, Imelda Marcos, Kiko Pangilinan, Digong, and a host of others, 'AND SO IT BEGINS' will screen in PH cinemas nationwide beginning August 21.

I am crying for my kids and for our country. Why can't we choose what is best for us? Maaaring marami pang bulag sa katotohanan at lage kong dinadasal na sana isang araw...
I am very proud I was a part of this movement. I am and will always choose our country

Kailangan kong mapanuod 'to. -from USA

[OnyxBautista]

I couldn't listen to "Rosas" after election. Akala ko nakamove on na ako but upon seeing this, I came to realize hindi pa pala ako nakakamove on. Still the greatest "what if" until now. 😔💔 But wala akong pinagsisisihan sa naging desisyon ko and proud ako sa choice na pinili ko.
Umaasa pa din ako sa #KulayRosasNaBukas

Isa ako sa mga nakibaka para sa Pink Movement. Pawis, pagod, puyat, ang dinaanan ko pero sulit sa pagaasa at inspirasyong dala ni VP Leni. While I truly believe she would have been a good President, but now realizing it, with the current political climate, hindi lang yung problema ng bansa ang kakaharapin nya, but two armies of rabid fanatical followers of Duterte and Marcos. She would be destroyed politically lalo't epic fail din naman ang mga Pink candidates for senate and congress, even in the LGUs. She wouldn't have had a strong back-up kung sya man ang nananalo. I've come into Peace that it wasn't her time to lead. Now that the Uniteam is destroying each other, then there's a reason after all, she can be a brighter beacon of hope, hopefully again in 2028.

Only our AMA knows when, in JESUS' time will the HOLY SPIRIT inspire the leader of our beloved Philippines !
