Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival partners with MOWELFUND in supporting its Kwentong Panalo movies
Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival proudly announces its partnership with Movie Workers Welfare Foundation, Inc. (MOWELFUND). This exciting collaboration aims to champion the Philippine film industry, particularly the young and emerging filmmakers, and narratives highlighting Filipino life and culture.
Founded in 1974, MOWELFUND is a non-stock, non-profit foundation focused on social welfare, education, and industry development, with a dedicated mission to support the diligent professionals within the Philippine movie landscape.
Boots Anson Roa-Rodrigo, Chairman of MOWELFUND, shares her gratitude.
“Thank you, Puregold, for CinePanalo. [Through this initiative], Puregold offers assistance to filmmakers [in featuring] films that delve into wholesome family themes that define everyday Filipino slice of life.”
The multi-awarded movie and television personality says this is a “win-win” for both MOWELFUND and Puregold. “Panalo ang Puregold for instilling family values through the potent medium of film. Panalo ang MOWELFUND Film Institute for offering logistics to young and enterprising filmmakers. Panalo ang aspiring film students and enthusiasts [because] CinePanalo helps them bring to life their dream projects through the magic of film.”
Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival recently unveiled its list of grant recipients–six directors for the full-length films and 25 student filmmakers for the short films–carefully selected from over 200 pitches nationwide. Slated for a grand debut at the Gateway Cineplex 18, Araneta City, from March 15 to 17, the festival's selections embody the theme “Mga Kwentong Panalo ng Buhay,” weaving stories of kinship, perseverance, and the Filipino spirit.
In a gesture of gratitude, MOWELFUND acknowledges Puregold's support for their 50th-anniversary medical and dental mission, where grocery gift bags will be bestowed upon the deserving members of the film community.
MOWELFUND will also have a representative in Puregold CinePanalo’s panel of judges, present special citations on the awards night, and award the top 10 student filmmakers a post-film festival workshop.
As the Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival approaches its zenith, Puregold senior marketing manager Ivy Hayagan-Piedad articulates, "With heartfelt appreciation, we recognize MOWELFUND and all our partners for their integral role in not just showcasing these inspiring Filipino narratives but also in fortifying our collective contribution to the flourishing Philippine movie industry.”

June 10, 2022
Netizens Rave for Puregold Channel’s “Ang Babae sa Likod ng Face Mask”
In the series, TV and online personality Herlene Budol takes on her first-ever starring role as the romantic interest of TV heartthrob and lead actor Joseph Marco.
Mickey Ferriols plays Madam Baby - Malta’s mother and struggling vlogger.The series is poised to be a certifiable hit. Even in the run-up to its official debut, “Ang Babae sa Likod ng Face Mask” has been reaping massive online support—garnering over 1.1 million views within 24 hours of its release on Facebook. Comments have been pouring in from netizens—all over the country—who are looking forward to the show’s premiere.
“Hala, nakaka excite naman” goes Shandel Bacasmo in the comments for the trailer. There are fans like Ghiavanniel Gabrieles Romero who can’t help noting the electric chemistry between Herlene Budol and Joseph Marco. “Kakakilig naman nyan!!! Bagay kayo,” Romero writes.
Joseph Marco’s own fans express their all-out support, like Assenav Siedaba, who remarks, “Kakilig kA tALaga jOseph marco!” A gaggle of Herlene Budol fans likewise declares their love for her, even raving over her looks. Leslie Vallejos Casitas Macalla comments, “For me hindi sya panget.”
To be sure, fans of both Herlene and Joseph are thrilled about the hilarious and kilig moments the show is expected to deliver.
Sieg and Malta meet for the first time at a café.
The first episode of the series introduces us to Herlene Budol’s character, Malta. Malta has not been lucky in love because she sees herself as a “hipon”—or someone blessed with a shapely figure but a plain and homely face, something that the sweet and kind Malta is able to conceal under her facemask.
Malta works to support her mother, Madam Baby, played by Mickey Ferriols, a struggling vlogger and owner of a sari-sari store. A scene later shows that the bills are piling up and Malta decides to help make ends meet for her family. Meanwhile, viewers are introduced to Sieg, Joseph Marco’s character. Sieg is hurting from the end of another relationship, and is nursing a broken heart.
What will happen when Malta and Sieg first meet? How can Malta help support her mother in these difficult times? Can Sieg move past the pain of heartbreak? What’s in store for the duo will be revealed in the upcoming episodes of “Ang Babae sa Likod ng Face Mask”.
