Anino

On the anniversary of her mother’s death, a quiet teen being raised by her two grandmothers awakens to her first period and is relentlessly bullied at school. When her bully later turns his torments on her crush, her pent-up rage erupts and she discovers an ancestral power that is both terrifying and freeing.

Directed by M.G. Evangelista, Anino leans on a strong ensemble — Emerson Basco, Maria Isabel Lopez, Ingrid Oliu — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2025.
