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.

03:22 [music]
