Help us keep Ang Nawawala in the cinemas! Read on to see what you can do :)

Self-distrubuted indie films cannot yet survive in our local film industry, but one day, we hope they will. If you have the time at all today to catch Ang Nawawala while it’s still in theaters, we hope you do. As we’ve said before, the first two days of an indie film’s commercial run are the most crucial. If malls don’t see their theaters filling up during those first two days, they’re more likely to pull the film out. Please help us keep independent cinema alive.

For those who are planning to watch in SM Cinema, here’s the truth: There is a POSSIBILITY that Ang Nawawala won’t even make it to this weekend (or maybe even tomorrow), so we strongly advise you to catch it today. This isn’t an official announcement, but we’re letting you guys know, just in case.

If you really can’t make it to the cinemas today, make some noise! Post on the walls of facebook.com/RobMovieworld and facebook.com/SMCinema and tell them to keep screening Ang Nawawala! Alternatively, you can pick up your phone and keep their hotlines buzzing with inquiries about the film. Every individual effort counts for something! If Tinkerbell need applause to stay alive, Ang Nawawala needs those calls and FB/Twitter posts!

For those who are interested, we are planning a fans day with the Roco twins (and other members of the cast plus crew!) in Eastwood. We will announce the details very, very soon!

For SM Cinemas, here are the numbers you should call, along with a schedule of today’s screening times as of this afternoon. SM Fairview and SM Megamall obviously have the busiest hot lines, so it’ll take a little patience and persistence on your part. Take note that SM Cinemas do not accept ticket reservations by phone and if you want to know the screening schedule for tomorrow, call them up at around 7:00 PM.
