Dinig Sana Kita ------- Feb 15, 2013 6:00 pm -------- SDA Theater, 5/f DLS-CSB SDA Campus
A story of a Deaf Dancer (Romalito Mallari) and a Rock Musician (Zoe Sandejas) who cross paths at a Youth Camp that mixes Deaf and Hearing kids. Their encounter with each other gets off to a rocky start but soon these polar opposites find that they have more in common than the others including a love for music. As the story progresses, we leave the camp behind to focus on their individual lives and how their friendship helps them to cope.
Primarily a film about communication in relationships, IF I KNEW WHAT YOU SAID shows how the Filipino Deaf Culture exists in the world of the hearing. It is the first Filipino feature length film with a Deaf actor (Romalito Mallari) cast in a leading male role. Several Deaf actors and dancers where cast alongside him.
We hope you and your students can watch both films. We also ask for your support by way of helping us sell tickets to friends, family and partners. Tickets are available at the SDEAS-CPD office, 1/f Duerr Bldg, DLS-CSB Taft Campus, Taft Ave Manila. You can also text 0917-8698231 or call: 526-7441 local 239 for other ticket outlets.
Proceeds of the ticket sales will go to the Deaf scholarship fund and several Deaf organizations.
Many thanks.
