Veteran director Mac Alejandre has teamed up anew with revered National Artist for Film and Broadcast Arts Ricky Lee to bring a complex, layered story to life in "Celestina: Burlesk Dancer," Viva Film's upcoming period film and one of its final offerings before the year comes to a close.
Set during one of the Philippines' most tumultuous eras — the Japanese occupation of the 1940s — the movie offers a glimpse into the lives of characters who navigate both personal and national turmoil.
