Actor Elijah Canlas recently shared in a Facebook post that Raging, the Cinemalaya film in which he plays the lead role, is set to have its international premiere at the 76th Berlinale under the Panorama section. The film will screen at the Berlin International Film Festival in Germany from 12 to 22 February.
Canlas reflected on his journey in creating the film — not only as its protagonist but also as one of its producers. He said, “One of the toughest yet most rewarding journeys I’ve had working on a film, for sure. I’m extremely honored to be an actor and co-producer of this project. I will forever treasure the magical experience of Sibuyan Island.”
He also urged the public to continue standing up against all forms of abuse. Canlas added, “Congratulations, direk Ryan at sa lahat ng bumubuo ng Raging (and to everyone who made Raging possible)! Forever grateful to each of you. Patuloy sana tayo lumaban sa lahat ng uri ng abuso (May we continue to fight all forms of abuse). Patuloy sana tayo maging mabuti sa kapwa at kalikasan (May we continue to be kind to one another and to nature).”
