Bosco Films, the Spain-based production and distribution company recognized for bringing inspiring, values-driven stories to audiences worldwide, is set to release Just Javier in the Philippines beginning August 12, 2026.
The documentary will screen exclusively at select Ayala Malls Cinemas nationwide.
Following its successful Spanish premiere on September 12, 2025, Just Javier emerged as one of the biggest documentary surprises in recent Spanish cinema. More than 23,000 moviegoers watched the film during its theatrical run, which continued for over a month after its initial release.
After reaching audiences in nearly 10 Spanish-speaking countries, the acclaimed documentary now brings its powerful story to Philippine cinemas.
The Extraordinary True Story of Javier Sartorius
Directed by Josepmaria AnglĂšs and produced by Adauge, Just Javier chronicles the remarkable life of Javier Sartorius Milans del Bosch.
Born into one of Spainâs aristocratic families, Javier was a charismatic young man with a promising future in sports and business. Surrounded by privilege and opportunity, he appeared to have everything many people dream of achieving.
While studying Business Administration in the United States, Javier became a padel tennis champion and showed considerable promise as a tennis player. Still, despite his accomplishments, he felt that something essential was missing.
Searching for meaning beyond trophies, status, and material success, he began questioning the direction of his life.
An Encounter That Changed Everything
Javierâs encounter with members of the homeless community in Los Angeles profoundly changed his perspective.
Moved by their experiences, he began an unexpected spiritual journey shaped by meditation, self-reflection, and a growing desire to find a deeper purpose. That search eventually led him to Cusco, Peru, where he joined a missionary experience that transformed his understanding of fulfillment.
There, Javier discovered a life centered on prayer, service, simplicity, and complete trust in God.
Leaving behind comfort and convention, he embraced a calling that few could have anticipated. His decision became the defining chapter of a life devoted not to personal recognition, but to faith and service.
A Powerful Reflection on Purpose and Fulfillment
More than a documentary or traditional biographical film, Just Javier explores universal questions about purpose, sacrifice, fulfillment, and the courage required to follow oneâs true calling.
What does it mean to live authentically? Can lasting joy be found beyond worldly success? And how much are we willing to surrender in pursuit of a meaningful life?
Through Javierâs extraordinary transformation, the film encourages audiences to reflect on their own priorities and consider where genuine happiness may be found.
Heartfelt and thought-provoking, Just Javier offers an uplifting cinematic experience for viewers searching for stories of faith, hope, and personal transformation.

Katy Perry is bringing the spectacle of The Lifetimes Tour to the big screen.
Following its well-received premiere at the 2026 Tribeca Festival, âKaty Perry: The Lifetimes Tour: Live From Parisâwill begin screening in cinemas worldwide on September 2, 2026, for a limited theatrical run.
Trafalgar Releasing announced that the concert film will launch across 70 countries, including the United Kingdom and Ireland, Italy, Brazil, Mexico, Germany, France, and Australia. The release will also include exclusive IMAX previews in the United States on opening day.
A Larger-Than-Life Concert Experience
Filmed during two sold-out performances in Paris in November 2025, the movie captures one of the most ambitious productions of Katy Perryâs career.
A 60-camera setup was used to bring audiences closer to the action, offering sweeping views of the stage, aerial performances, crowd reactions, and elaborate visual effects. Rather than simply documenting the concert from a distance, the film moves through the show and presents angles that fans could not experience from their seats.
The result is a vibrant, immersive production designed for the scale and sound of the cinema.
Throughout the concert, Perry combines powerful vocals with demanding choreography and theatrical stunts. She performs above the audience, sings while suspended upside down, and travels around the arena on a giant winged butterfly.
Every sequence is built around color, movement, and spectacle, creating a joyful big-screen celebration of Perryâs music and stage presence.
A Setlist Filled With Katy Perry Hits
The concert film features songs from across Perryâs career, including some of her most recognizable singles.
Among the tracks included are âTeenage Dream,â âCalifornia Gurls,â âDark Horse,â âRoar,â âFirework,â and âThe One That Got Away.â
The latter experienced renewed global popularity in 2026, reaching the Top 10 of Spotifyâs Global Top 50 chart. Its resurgence also contributed to increased interest in Perryâs music catalog.
According to the information provided, Perry surpassed 10 million followers on TikTok and reached more than 91 million monthly listeners on Spotify, marking a new career high and placing her among the platformâs most-streamed female artists.
The Lifetimes Tour Reached More Than One Million Fans
The Lifetimes Tour sold 1,058,950 tickets in 2025 and generated $134,158,672 in gross ticket sales.
The tour included 91 shows across 23 countries and five continents over seven and a half months. It began in Mexico City on April 23 and concluded in Abu Dhabi on December 7.
The itinerary also featured six performances in China, a notable achievement due to the limited number of performance permits granted to Western artists.
In addition to its commercial success, the tour supported several charitable initiatives.
A total of $264,814 was donated to the Firework Foundation in the United States. The tour also donated ÂŁ81,918, listed as $109,128 in the supplied information, to Music Venue Trust in the United Kingdom.

Love, grief, and unresolved family wounds take center stage in âTayo Lang Ang Nakakaalam,â a full-length feature competing at Cinemalaya 22. Directed by MapĂșa University School of Multimedia and Digital Arts Dean David R. Corpuz and co-written with Iar Arondaing, the 110-minute drama examines the fragile bonds that hold a family together when illness forces painful histories back into the open.
A Shared Life Suddenly Fractured
The film follows Neil, played by Martin del Rosario, and Bong, portrayed by Miguel Odron, long-time partners whose life is closely intertwined with Bongâs mother, Gloria, played by Yayo Aguila.
Their small but tightly knit world begins to fracture when Bong suffers a sudden, debilitating illness that leads to hospitalization.
Caught between the demands of his job and the emotional weight of bedside caregiving, Neil struggles to keep himself together. Gloria, meanwhile, tries to remain strong for her son even as fear and grief begin to take their toll.
The situation becomes even more complicated with the arrival of Benjie, Bongâs long-estranged father, played by Epy Quizon. Returning with hopes of reconciliation, Benjie must confront the resentment and unspoken pain that have divided the family for years.
At its heart, âTayo Lang Ang Nakakaalamâ brings together three people with different histories and unresolved wounds, all trying to stand beside the person they love most.
A Powerful Ensemble and Creative Team
Alongside del Rosario, Odron, Aguila, and Quizon, the film features an accomplished supporting cast that includes Madeleine Nicolas, Bodjie Pascua, Bong Cabrera, Adrian Lindayag, and Nour Hooshmand.
The film is produced by Kristine Camille Sulit and Patricia Salic, with Adam Dumaguin and Corpuz serving as executive producers.
Its creative team includes Dumaguin as cinematographer, Joris Fernandez as editor, David Esguerra as production designer, Elian Idioma as sound designer, and Glenn Barit as musical scorer.
âThere is something magical about seeing a world I initially imagined in solitude become a vision shared by a team, and eventually, something that strangers can experience together,â Corpuz shared.
Balancing Filmmaking and Academic Leadership
For Corpuz, bringing the story to the big screen also meant navigating the demands of two intense roles: filmmaker and Dean of the School of Multimedia and Digital Arts at MapĂșa University.
Reflecting on the journey from the projectâs selection as a Cinemalaya finalist in October 2025 to its festival debut, Corpuz recalled the doubts surrounding his decision.
âSomeone told me I was crazy for putting myself in this situation, joining a film festival while serving as the Dean of a school,â he said. âPerhaps they had a point. But at that moment, the desire to create mattered more to me than the pressure of being judged on the outcome.â
Managing both responsibilities required strong support from the MapĂșa University administration, including University President Dodjie S. Maestrecampo, Executive Vice Presidents Lilibeth D. Sabino and Raul Victor B. Tan, Vice President Margarita V. Camacho, and Joanne V. Mar.
Corpuz also credited the MapĂșa SoMDA and MapĂșa Film communities for helping him bring the project to life.
For Corpuz, the experience demonstrated how academic institutions can become powerful incubators for creative practice when their leaders actively support artistic work.
Cinemalaya Celebrates 22 Years of Independent Cinema
Cinemalaya returns from August 6 to 18 with the theme âCinemalaya 22: Reel Reflections.â
Presented by the Cultural Center of the Philippines and the Cinemalaya Foundation, Inc., the festival features nine full-length films and 10 short films exploring identity, memory, justice, family relationships, and other urgent realities.
Since its launch in 2005, Cinemalaya has screened more than a thousand works, providing Filipino filmmakers with an essential platform for telling bold, honest, and deeply personal stories.
Through films such as âTayo Lang Ang Nakakaalam,â the festival continues to reflect the complexities of everyday Filipino life while creating space for fresh voices and meaningful conversations.
Netflix has unveiled the main poster and trailer for Our Sticky Love, an upcoming romantic comedy that blends memory loss, hidden secrets, and an unusual small-town romance.
Premiering August 7, the series stars Ha Young as Go Eun-sae, a prosecutor who suddenly wakes up without any memory of her past. Jung Hae-in plays Jang Tae-ha, a boxing coach who unexpectedly appears at her side and claims to be her boyfriend.
Thrown together under strange circumstances, Eun-sae and Tae-ha begin living under the same roof in a quiet rural town. What starts as an awkward and suspicious arrangement slowly develops into a playful, heartfelt romance.
A Love Story With a Sticky Twist
Director Kim Jang-han describes Our Sticky Love as a warm romantic comedy designed to leave viewers smiling.
âItâs a heart-warming, feel-good romantic comedy,â says director Kim Jang-han. âItâs a story about building love that binds two people as tightly as sticky, sweet Korean taffy.â
He also compares the showâs appeal to the famously chewy treat.
âThe seriesâ irresistible charm will leave you unable to pull yourself away, just like getting stuck to Korean taffy before you even realize it,â adds the director
With its mix of gentle humor, mystery, and emotional warmth, the series promises a romance that grows stronger with every unexpected turn.
Eun-sae Wakes Up in an Unfamiliar World
The main trailer begins with Eun-sae opening her eyes inside a hospital in Gujin-gun, a quiet rural area known for its traditional taffy shops.
She has no idea where she is, how she arrived, or what happened before she woke up. Everything around her feels unfamiliar, from the peaceful streets of Taffy Village to the colorful residents who seem to know more than she does.
Then Tae-ha arrives.
Calm and confident, he tells Eun-sae that he is her boyfriend. Unfortunately for him, she finds the claim difficult to believe.
His rough appearance does not match the kind of man she would normally choose, and his explanation only makes the situation more suspicious. Surrounded by strangers and unable to recall her own life, Eun-sae refuses to trust him.
Suspicion Slowly Turns Into Affection
Despite Eun-saeâs resistance, Tae-ha remains gentle and attentive.
His patience begins to chip away at her defenses, while his obvious affection leaves her confused and flustered. Little by little, she becomes more comfortable around him. The tension between them softens, and moments of hesitation gradually give way to genuine smiles.
Their growing chemistry adds warmth and humor to the story, but the trailer makes it clear that their relationship is not as simple as it appears.
Just when Eun-sae starts to trust Tae-ha, he delivers a serious warning. No one can find out about them.
A Romance Bound by a Dangerous Secret
Tae-haâs warning raises troubling questions about their past.
Why must their relationship remain hidden? What is he trying to protect Eun-sae from? And why does he insist that staying by his side is the safest choice for her?
As fragments of truth begin to surface, Eun-sae must decide whether Tae-ha is someone she can trust or someone connected to the mystery behind her memory loss.
Blending romance, comedy, and suspense, Our Sticky Love offers an offbeat story about two people tied together by affection, uncertainty, and a secret neither of them can easily escape.
