On April 27, director Linnet Zurbano revealed that she watched Pornhub as a reference for the sexy scenes in her upcoming Vivamax film, AFAM.
At the media conference for AFAM, which LionhearTV covered, Zurbano said she watched Bellesa films to help her with her sexy scenes in the upcoming Vivamax movie.
“Yes, I did, specifically, Bellesa films, kung made by a woman. O sa Pornhub ‘yan. Sa totoo lang, pag nanonood ako niyang Pornhub nga, siyempre nag-research tayo, pinuntahan ko talaga ‘yung Bellesa film, kasi ang sabi nila ay a porn made by a woman. So napansin ko ‘yung difference, at tsaka napansin ko na-eexcite talaga ako doon sa ano sa mga film doon sa Bellesa film.”
She noted that she wanted to make the sexy scene revolve around a woman’s point of view.
“So ‘yun nanonood ako, tapos siyempre nanood din ako ng iba na hindi naman made by a woman, para malaman ko na, ah ito pala ‘yung mas turn on for a woman. Pero dapat ano rin ma-inject ko rin kung ano ‘yung hinahanap ko di ba? Kung ano ‘yung hinahanap ko kapag nanonood ako. Kung ano ‘yung exciting ako.”
She also voiced her opinion about Filipinos who view Pinays that have relationships with foreigners as victimizers.
“Mali naman po ‘yun, kasi tayong mga Pilipino dapat nagtutulungan. Napakahirap po itayo ng bandera ng mga Pinay. So ‘yung mga natitirang percentage ng mga Filipina na nakikipag-AFAM, hirap na hirap tuloy itaguyod ‘yung pakikipag-AFAM kasi nabra-branded na nga na ganon.”
She then shared what takeaway or message she wanted to impart to the Vivamax audience.
“Ang gusto kong maging take-away nila, maging proud tayo, maging proud tayo sa skin natin, tayong mga Filipina, mahalin natin ‘yung culture natin, ‘yung lahi natin.
“Hindi porket matangos ang ilong nila, blond ang hair nila, eh tayo ay minority na, tayo ay kumbaga, ma-intimidate tayo sa lahi na ‘yun. Dapat lagi natin itayo ‘yung bandera natin, tayong mga Filipina, dapat ano pa rin tayo, suot pa rin natin ‘yung Princess crown natin as dalagang Filipina.”
She emphasized the significance of maintaining a sense of self-worth for Filipinas who fall in love with foreigners.
“Dapat liligawan tayo, dapat kikilalanin tayo ng husto, ganon din, kikilalanin natin sila. Hindi porket foreigner sila, na iba ang itsura nila parang ang gwapo-gwapo porket maputi lang, shortcut na, cut the chase.
“Sila na ‘yung perfect, sila na ‘yung ating fairytale, hindi po. So tao pa rin sila, nagkaroon lang kaunting puti, matangos ang ilong. Pero dapat makuha pa rin natin ‘yung deserve natin as a Filipina wearing our Princess crown.”
As for their film, AFAM stars Robb Guinto, Jela Cuenca, Nico Locco, Alexa Ocampo, Giselle Sanchez, Katya Santos, PJ Rosario, and Roi Alonte.
AFAM streams on May 5 via Vivamax, with an early release starting April 29 via Vivamax Plus.
