Lasponggols (2005): Besetzung, Handlung & Streaming

Released in 2005, Lasponggols is a komödie and drama film directed by Sigfreid Barros-Sanchez. “A film for the little people of the film industry.” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. A black comedy film, which focuses on two film workers, Raffy, the clapper, and Dido, a utility boy. Both share the same dream: to direct their own films someday. Their lives as mere "small production people" took a different turn when, together with the people in the unit van they were riding,had an encounter with armed men. Their co-workers were killed, and the two of them were forced to drive the unit van out of fear until it ran out of gas. The van contains equipment for movie production like cameras, lights and film stocks. They ended up in a secluded barrio not yet reached by modern technology, and therefore, the townsfolk knew nothing of the movie industry.

Who’s in it. Lasponggols stars Epy Quizon, Dwight Gaston, Boboy Garrovillo and Danny Javier, among others.
