ACTRESS Nadine Lustre—fresh from her back-to-back wins as best actress in the Filipino Academy of Movie Arts and Sciences Awards and Gawad Urian—and all-around actor Sam Concepcion will bring the beat on the big screen in the most epic dance movie of the year, “Indak.”
The film follows the story of a simple island girl named Jen (Nadine) who loves dancing but never shows her true talent to anyone. Not until a video of her dancing went viral online, Vin (Sam), leader of dance group Indak Pinas, invites her to come to Manila and join them. Not confident with her own talent, Jen hesitates to accept Vin’s invitation at first. But Vin finally convinces Jen when he mentions that their group is going to compete at the World Dance Championship in South Korea, and that her presence in the group will have a great impact.
Aside from the amazing choreography, “Indak” also features great soundtracks like “Sumayaw sa Indak” by Nadine Lustre featuring Pio Balbuena and Shehyee, Sam Concepcion’s soulful version of “Ikot-Ikot,” and Janine Teñoso’s heart-wrenching version of “Hindi Tayo Pwede.” Directed by the number one concert director, Paul Alexei Basinillo, “Indak” was shot in the beautiful island of Bantayan, Cebu, and scenic South Korea, making the whole movie a feast for the senses.
Dance to the beat of your dreams as “Indak” hits cinemas nationwide on Aug. 7. (PR)
