About Heavens Were Weighed
This is the story of the dramatic journey of Victoria, a struggling but talented singer whose search for a "career" leads her to an adventure that will change her life forever. She is introduced to a celebrated songwriter, Joel, who makes her his protege and who later falls madly in love with her. Torn between her booming career and Joel's proposal of love, Victoria turns her back on love and chooses a successful singing career. Joel, whose heart is broken, marries Sandra, the heiress of a recording company. The three characters are caught in a web of pride, deception, and lies.
Directed by Danny L. Zialcita, Heavens Were Weighed leans on a strong ensemble — Kuh Ledesma, Christopher de Leon, Rio Locsin — 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 drama titles of 1982.
