"Ded na si Lolo" (movie)


This is a family-oriented film that deals with how the Filipinos cope when a family member dies. How Filipinos react. It is a tragic comedy film which is common to the Filipinos since we are more of those who enjoy drama with a little bit of laughter aside. This movie shows several superstitions in which some of us still believe. Superstitions are widely known to us since our grandmothers, grandfathers and other relatives still follow them. This really signifies the culture of Filipinos.

Directed by Soxie H. Topacio, this is a great thing to have in our time capsule and worth a two thumbs up.

Superstitions like "do not bathe when there's a burial", "do not wear red when there's a burial", "Do not let a tear drop in the coffin" and a lot more.


This truly symbolizes the Filipino family, well not all but most, because we Filipinos are superstitious, family-oriented and Filipinos can't afford to lose someone so dear to them. The movie shows several things done in a burial, like playing cards to pass the time and offering food to those who attend the burial. A true Filipino act.



Here's the official trailer of the movie: Enjoy :)

Disclaimer: We do not own this trailer, Regal Films does. :)
