FOR the young, newbies in film production na siyang nasa likod ng CineKo Productions, 2017 seems to augur well for them.

Year-opener kasi ang kanilang maiden offering, ang “Mang Kepweng Returns”, which hits the theatres on Jan. 8.

Much is said and written about this Vhong Navarro-Kim Domingo film mula sa klasiko nang kuwentong tampok ang herbolaryong si Mang Kepweng na orihinal na binigyang-buhay ng namayapang si Chiquito. Many years later, napapanahon pa rin ang predilection o paniniwala nating mga Pinoy sa bisa ng herbal medicine.

Even in rural areas where modern medicine is scarce, if not expensive ay naniniwala pa rin tayo sa mga tagapagpalaganap ng herbal cure to address our ailments. Lumayo pa tayo, eh, sa labas ng simbahan ng Quiapo ay nagkalat pa rin ang mga dahong pinaniniwalaang nakapagpapagaling ng anumang uri ng sakit.

Sa pelikula nga lang matatagpuan ang pinaghalong medisina at komedya. After all, hindi nga ba’t laughter is the best medicine?
