    To celebrate National Women’s Month, the CCP Film, Broadcast, and New Media Division (CCP FBNMD) will have a special film screening that highlights the different facets, strengths and braveries of Filipino women.

    Known for winning different local beauty pageants, Jo-an is the epitome of an innocent and beautiful young woman. On the other hand, Sabel is a mat weaver’s daughter who dreams to be free from certain societal constraints. Their last encounter together before Sabel leaves home urges Jo-an to make a life-changing decision.

    Members of the CCP Film Society will enjoy the exclusive screening of “Babae” by Sigrid Andrea Bernardo.

They share their dreams during teenage years, and eventually start their own family during adulthood when a child accidentally enters their lives.
