Exclusive Clip: Metro Manila, Out On DVD On 10th March

To celebrate the release of the superb METRO MANILA on the home formats next Monday, we have an exlclusive ‘behind the scenes’ clip to share with our readers.

Seeking a better life, Oscar Ramirez and his family decide to move from the poverty stricken rice fields of the Northern Philippine mountain ranges and journey towards the capital mega city of Metro Manila. Upon arriving in the big city, it isn’t long before they fall foul to various city inhabitants whose manipulative ways are a daily part of city survival. Oscar lands a job as a driver for an armored truck company and is befriended by Ong, his senior officer. It soon becomes apparent that Ong has been waiting for the arrival of someone just like Oscar for some time. A few simple acts of kindness from Ong place Oscar in his debt; a debt that leads to blackmail as Ong forces Oscar to help him in a robbery of the company they both work for.

METRO MANILA was the winner of three BIFA awards and was recently nominated for a BAFTA. It was also the UK’s official submission in the Best Foreign Language Film Award category at this year’s Oscars.

METRO MANILA Is released on DVD on 10^th March.
