New on Blu-ray: ONCE A MOTH / MINSA'Y ISANG GAMU-GAMO (1976)

Product Description: Luzon nurse Corazon de la Cruz (Nora Aunor) was poised for and excited by her pending immigration to the U.S. alongside her Navy inductee fiancé Bonifacio (Jay Ilagan). However, a demeaning, trumped-up theft charge against his Clark Air Base commissary worker mother (Perla Bautista) and a tragic, fatal incident between her little brother (Eddie Villamayor) and an American soldier found them questioning their dreams, in this charged, rediscovered effort.
