00:00Anyway, this is such a big, massive break that was given to you to play Elsa.

00:15I know this is a very simple question, but let's go straight to it.

00:21The people know that I'm a rabid, die-hard Noranian.

00:27A-Cell, will you try to convince me to watch Isang Himalaya?

00:36First of all, no one can be more or more equal than the one and only superstar and national artist, Ms. Nora Honor.

00:47I'm always asked, are you pressured? Of course, I am pressured.

00:51But this is a big shoes to fill. How did you do this?

00:57What I said was, this is a character that we studied.

01:02We stayed faithful to the script, but also unfaithful.

01:06That became the exact term of Director Pepe Diokno.

01:11We, as Barrio Cupam, because this was staged back in 2018-2019.

01:18Our cast that was brought to the Metro Manila Film Festival, it was already a musical back in 2018-2019.

01:25Why do you have to watch this?

01:28Because this is a work of Sir Ricky Lee, our national artist.

01:34Because the best theater actors of our country came together here.

01:40Who are they?

01:41I'm here with Ms. Betuin Escalante, David Ezra, Vic Robinson, Ms. Naomi Gonzales, Ms. Sweet Plantado is also here.

01:54Hi, Sweet.

01:55Yes, there are so many veteran actors.

02:00Who plays the photographer?

02:01Orly. Sorry, Orly. Of course, David Ezra.

02:04Wow. This is the role played by Ms. Tanki Manikan.

02:08David is so talented.

02:09So talented.

02:10Very powerful voice.

02:11Even the trailer, it's gripping.

02:14Elsa, what's the truth?

02:16Even when you're in the window, how do you say that line when you're calling them?

02:23Call everyone. I have something important to say.

02:28And then the music comes.

02:30It's beautiful, right?

02:31It's really powerful.

02:35Also, it's almost impossible to reprise a role like Elsa.

02:41Yes.

02:42After, you know, this is one of the best films in Asia.

02:46You're talking about Himalaya.

02:48How did you manage to create your own version of a character?

02:53Dating back five years ago, we came to the entablado of the musical, me personally, Blanco.

03:02And really just studied the script.

03:05And then slowly, we built the barrio.

03:08What is our relationship to each character?

03:12Because it's not just about Elsa.

03:14It's about a community that the barrio creates.

03:18And that's where we started.

03:21What is her story?

03:23What did she see?

03:26What is the Himalaya that she wants to share with the whole community?
