ABS-CBN expands free Filipino holiday film offerings until December 31 to Spanish-speaking audiences on YouTube worldwide.

LOS ANGELES, CA, December 9, 2021 - Here's some trivia: the first film produced in the Philippines is "La Vida de Rizal" which was screened in 1912.  Yes, Philippine cinema was born in the Spanish language. Even now, the major terms used in its local industry -- pelikula, sine, direktor, aktor, bida, contrabida -- are rooted in the Spanish language. This is proof of the cultural proximity that continues to exist not only between Spain and the Philippines but between the Philippines and other countries that have very strong Spanish culture embedded in their histories.   
 
So, it comes as no surprise that even current Filipino cinematic storytelling and themes resonate among present-day Spanish-speaking audiences around the world.  Thus, Filipino films originally in Tagalog that were dubbed in Spanish didn't have a difficult time finding a Spanish-speaking audience that welcomed these entertainment offerings.
 
ABS-CBN, the leading Filipino media and entertainment company which is also the world’s largest exporter of primetime teleseryes and films from the Philippines, is enjoying a successful run of its select Spanish-dubbed Filipino films made available for limited time viewing on its ABS-CBN Entertainment YouTube Channel.
 
The latest additions to its Spanish-dubbed offerings which are available now for viewing on ABS-CBN Entertainment YouTube Channel until the end of 2021 are the following:
 
"The Third Party" (Triangulo De Amor)



Starring FAMAS (Philippine Oscars) Best Actress awardee Angel Locsin, Sam Milby and Zanjoe Marudo, this romantic comedy tells the story of how an aspiring fashion designer's plan to win back her first love is complicated by the fact that he has already fallen in love with another man.
 
"You're My Boss" (Un Amor Entre Jefes)


Starring Philippine Prince of Independent Movies and Philippine Teleserye King Coco Martin and Toni Gonzaga, this rom-com centers on how a smart and bossy female airline company executive finds herself forced to trade places with her personal assistant in pretense just to close a career make-or-break deal.
 
"Feng Shui 2"
 

A sequel to the 2004 box-office hit, "Feng Shui", this horror film starring Kris Aquino and Coco Martin as the new owner of the "cursed bagua" finds himself having luck and prosperity first then followed with deadly consequences. It was the first Filipino film to be rendered in 4D shown exclusively at the XD Theater of the Mall of Asia in the Philippines back in 2014 under a partnership of ABS-CBN Star Cinema and SM Lifestyle Entertainment. 
      
ABS-CBN, global home to top-rating Filipino TV programs, box-office films, best-selling music, and live digital concerts and events, continues to produce high-caliber programs and movies with cast and storylines that appeal to diverse cultures and wider audiences.  It is also rapidly transitioning into an agile digital company and continues to expand its services and businesses to address the different needs of Filipinos worldwide.
