Sisa

Sisa (2026)

The Philippines, 1902. The land is raw, wounded, occupied. Smoke clings to the trees. Blood soaks the soil. The war is over – but the violence lingers. Widows fill the villages. Mothers vanish into silence. Among them walks Sisa, barefoot and broken, dismissed as mad by those who fear what they don't understand. But madness is only the surface.

Интересные факты

Sisa is a 2025 historical thriller drama film written, co-produced, and directed by Jun Robles Lana. It stars Hilda Koronel in her comeback film after her 13-year hiatus, with the supporting cast including Eugene Domingo, Jennica Garcia, Tanya Gomez, Barbara Miguel, and Romnick Sarmenta. Set during the last years of the Philippine-American War, the film follows a woman who went insane after seeing the aftermath of the carnage caused by the American forces, but unknown to them, this pretense is just an act of revenge.

Production

Lana conceived the film following his interest in the American occupation of the Philippines, adding that it was inspired by the Balangiga massacre in 1902 and the historical role of Filipino women such as Agueda Kahabagan during the Philippine-American War. He also saw Sisa as the second in a trilogy of historical sociopolitical films following the 2013 martial law film Barber's Tales.

It is a co-production of The IdeaFirst Company, October Train Films, Quantum Films, Cineko Productions, CMB Films, and Myanmar-based Forever Group. Carlo Canlas Mendoza served as a cinematographer.

The idea to include Hilda Koronel in the film was suggested to Jun Robles Lana by fellow director Perci Intalan. The film is Koronel's first acting role since she last appeared in The Mistress in 2012.

Principal photography commenced in the second week of January 2025, coinciding with the release of the first-look photo featuring lead star Hilda Koronel. Location shooting was held in Tarlac. Filming was completed on 16 March 2025.
