GMA Network’s critically acclaimed and heart-wrenching drama “Green Bones” will stream worldwide on Netflix beginning on June 19.
Produced by GMA Pictures and GMA Public Affairs, and co-produced with Brightburn Entertainment, the film stars award-winning actors Dennis Trillo and Ruru Madrid who won Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor, respectively, at the 50th Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF).
Directed by the esteemed filmmaker Zig Dulay and based on the original concept by GMA Public Affairs’ senior manager for documentaries JC Rubio, “Green Bones” is the story of a soon-to-be-released prisoner named Domingo Zamora (Trillo), who was incarcerated for the murder of his sister. His release is put in jeopardy by Xavier Gonzaga (Madrid), a newly-assigned prison guard who makes it his personal mission to keep him behind bars.
The drama explores the belief that the presence of green bones in a person’s remains is proof of one’s goodness in life.
Joining the acting powerhouse pairing of Trillo and Madrid are Michael de Mesa, Ronnie Lazaro, Wendell Ramos, and Alessandra de Rossi. The movie also features the special participation of Iza Calzado and Nonie Buencamino.
Besides earning acting awards for its two lead actors at the MMFF, Green Bones also won for Best Picture, Best Screenplay for National Artist Ricky Lee and Angeli Atienza, Best Cinematography for Neil Daza, and Best Child Performer for Sienna Stevens.
