AFTER quite a while, ngayon lang uli magbibida sa isang pelikula si Sunshine Cruz via “Malamaya” (The Color of Ash), isang finalist ng Cinemalaya 2019 slated to run from Aug. 2-11 sa CCP Theaters at Aug. 7-13 sa select Ayala and Vista Cinemas.
Mula noong mabasa ni Sunshine ang script ay hindi na niya ito pinakawalan, kasehodang may intimate love scenes siya with younger actor, Enzo Pineda.
Tipong “50 Shades of Gray” nga ang tema ng movie, kung saan may special participation din si Raymond Bagatsing.
Isa itong sexy romance film about love and art, produced by Spears Films, ALV Films and Cine Likha, at directorial debut ng dalawang female directors na sina Danica Sta. Lucia at Leilani Chavez.
The story takes viewers on a sensual journey through the eyes of Sunshine’s Nora, a 45-year old unmarried visual artist who is in an undefined relationship with a fellow artist named Jim (Raymond), a potter who is recovering from the death of his wife.
Nora’s dull and uninspired life takes a colorful turn when she meets Migs (Enzo) a photographer. The attraction between the two is instant. They will embark on a passionate love affair that ignites their respective lives and artistic endeavors.
Para kay Sunshine, na 15 years old pa lang ay gumagawa na ng pelikula, ang “Malamaya” ay isang major turning point sa kanyang career.

Wala raw siyang kiyeme lalo na sa execution ng “maiinit” love scenes niya with Enzo dahil babae ang mga director ng pelikula.
“Whatever they asked me to do, I willingly did because I know I will be well taken cared of,” reasons the newest indie sensation.
Dagdag pa niya, “The mere fact na Cinemalaya ang project na ito and directed by women, solved na ako. This time, I am being given a chance to show my skills not just my body.”
“Malamaya” is a big break for Enzo na nagsimula sa TV and he wishes to be known as a serious actor. At nagpaka-daring din siya dito.
“Parang buong kaluluwa ko in-expose ko na sa film na ito,” sabi ni Enzo.
After its Cinemalaya 2019 run ay may wide commercial theatrical release rin ang “Malamaya” simula Aug. 14 in cinemas nationwide.
