00:06 After the Photos 5 Legacy, how does it feel to have a big screen?
00:12 And of course, Isabel, how was it?
00:16 [laughter]
00:18 She's teaching us how to get down.
00:20 [laughter]
00:22 But what about the project? How does it feel?
00:27 It's fun to do this Firefly because, first of all, this is our first movie with Isabel.
00:33 And Isabel's first movie.
00:35 Congratulations!
00:37 Metro Manila Film Festival, so we're very lucky.
00:40 And I enjoyed filming this because we were going around the Philippines.
00:48 We went to Sorsogo, Bicol, we saw Mayon, we saw Bulusan.
00:54 We tasted delicious Bicol, especially food.
00:57 It was a fun experience, like we're not on vacation.
01:00 We were also the ones who were getting the views.
01:03 We went to Cape, it was so exciting, so beautiful.
01:07 It was my first time to do this.
01:08 And it was directed by Drek Zig.
01:11 I'm one of my favorite directors and Drek Zig.
01:14 Every time he's taking me to the set, we're just talking.
01:18 They're saying, "Ms. Nessa, are you really like that?
01:22 In the taping, it's all deep questions."
01:25 I'm like, "Maybe I'm just in Bicol."
01:28 [laughter]
01:30 But is the entire location of Firefly made in Bicol?
01:35 It's not.
01:36 It's not? But most of the important scenes are there.
01:39 At least 70% of our scenes are in Bicol.
01:43 Nice, that's beautiful.
01:45 So you can look forward to it.
01:47 Let's give a shout-out to the Bicol people.
01:49 [cheers]
01:50 Hey, Bicol people!
01:52 Hey!
01:53 The only one. Are you the only one?
01:55 Yeah!
01:56 [cheers]
01:57 You should shout, "Mambre, I love you!"
01:59 [laughter]
02:00 And Kapuso, it's their first time to be on MMFF.
02:04 And it's their first time to be in a show, right?
02:08 So I think it's a tradition to float.
02:11 That's right.
02:12 Actually, this is my second time in Metro Manila.
02:15 And you?
02:16 My first time was when I was 5 years old.
02:18 So I don't remember much.
02:20 I remember when you were so cute.
02:23 You shouldn't have grown up.
02:25 [laughter]
02:26 I'm just kidding.
02:27 [laughter]
02:28 I'm just kidding.
02:29 [laughter]
02:30 No!
02:31 [laughter]
02:33 Hey, I'm not--
02:34 I'm just kidding.
02:35 I think you're so big.
02:37 I mean, when I saw you with your shoes on,
02:40 I thought you were so cute.
02:41 Isabel, is this your first time?
02:43 Yes, it's my first time.
02:44 First movie, first MMFF.
02:46 And it's also my first time to be in a float parade.
02:50 So it's very exciting.
02:51 Because I used to watch MMFF.
02:53 It's like a tradition when I was young.
02:56 So I got to be in a movie that was nominated--
03:02 One of the entries in MMFF.
03:04 So it's very exciting.
03:05 Yes.
03:06 But that's the only thing you missed, right?
03:08 But now you're a part of it.
03:09 Yes.
03:10 Are you ready to jump in your float?
03:13 [laughter]
03:14 We're just going to have our float.
03:16 [laughter]
03:17 You're not going to do it?
03:18 You're not going to do it?
03:19 [laughter]
03:20 Yes, that's what's going to happen.
