How far will you go to fight for love? One of the Philippines’ premier film production and distribution outfits ABS-CBN Film Productions Inc.
(Star Cinema) poses this question in its latest movie offering, “Sin Island”, a different kind of love story starring Coleen Garcia, Xian Lim, and Nathalie Hart and screening outside the Philippines via TFC@theMovies this February and until March.
This is the first in a long time that Star Cinema will be producing a movie this bold. A combination of an overflow of sensuality, and a love triangle (among Garcia, Lim, and Hart), “Sin Island” is expected to be the most sizzling and most talked about film of the season.
Under the direction of Gino Santos, who is known for his unique brand of edgy filmmaking, together with the fresh screenplay by Jancy Nicolas, “Sin Island” comes out as a sexy romance film that seeks to find out if a marriage could truly survive two infidelities.
The story revolves around picture-perfect married couple David (Lim) and Kanika (Garcia) whose paradise will be put to the test as Kanika enters a dangerous affair, shortly after the career of David moves towards a downward spiral.
As David discovers Kanika’s transgressions, he flees to Sinilaban Island where he meets and engages in a carnal affair with a girl named Tasha (Hart).
Despite their mistakes, David and Kanika decide to rekindle their relationship but Tasha refuses to let go of David.
The film may fall under the sexy genre, but Nicolas says it is not lacking in values which the viewers could learn from. “It talks about redeeming love, redeeming a marriage, and fighting for it.
More than the sexiness and darkness of its genre, it’s a story of a marriage,” he explains.
Meantime, Garcia is successfully positioned as one of the industry’s hottest and most prized talents of her generation whose impressive body of work both on television and in film continues to grow.
“Sin Island” is Garcia’s fourth movie under the direction of Santos, from “Hashtag Y,” “Ex with Benefits,” to “Love Me Tomorrow.” “This is the sexiest movie I have done, but not the sexiest role I’ve taken since I’m married in this film. However, this is the bravest and hardest film that I’ve done,” Garcia reveals.
On the other hand, it is worth noting how Lim takes his acting skills a notch higher as he portrays the character of David which is his most mature role to date.
“Definitely, people will see me do scenes which are different from what they are used to see me doing in a film. I guess I’m pushing my capabilities as an actor, and ability to tackle different roles,” Lim explains.
Also perceived to be the next big thing in the industry is Hart, who is gaining mainstream popularity with her stunning good looks coupled with her impressive acting prowess.
“Sin Island” marks her first film under Star Cinema, which she says is more than just a sexy film. “It’s not about being seductive and showing some skin – it has a story,” she explains.
“Sin Island” also stars TJ Trinidad, Lito Pimentel, Ricardo Cepeda, Marina Benipayo, Bernard Palanca, Joyce Burton, Dominic Ochoa, Thou Reyes, Charlie Dizon, McCoy de Leon,Desiree del Valle, and Nikki Valdez.
Is there really a distinction between emotional and physical cheating? Is a marriage worth restoring if both husband and wife ruin it? How should a young couple deal with infidelity?
Find out all the answers in this unapologetic, bold, and daring adult love story, “Sin Island” screening outside the country via TFC@theMovies on the following dates and at these countries:
