Siargao is a  Philippine romance film to be showing on December 25, 2017 as part of the 43rd Metro Manila Film Festival.

The film was set and filmed in Siargao island. Soriano described the premise of his film as a story of "finding and losing yourself, and falling in and out of love."

Fresh from a breakup caused by her fear of settling down, video blogger LAURA (Erich Gonzales) embarks on a solo trip to Siargao hoping to move on and find a new adventure. Here she meets rock singer DIEGO (Jericho Rosales) who is caught between uncertainties of the future and baggages of the past. This fateful encounter stirs up what local entrepreneur ABI (Jasmine Curtis-Smith) thought were long lost feelings for a long lost love, i.e. Diego. 

In this unlikely triangle, is there room for second chances? Or should they move on to something(one) new?

Two of the country's top surfers, Luke Landrigan and Wilmar Melindo appear in Siargao. 

Also in the film are Enchong Dee (with special participation),  YouTube personality Wil Dasovich, Mica Javier, Roxanne Barcelo, Will Devaughn, Suzette Ranillo, and Leon Miguel.

Don't miss to watch Siargao in cinemas nationwide starting this Christmas, December 25, 2017 as part of the 43rd Metro Manila Film Festival.
