Set against the coastal backdrop of Oslob, Cebu, known as a sanctuary for whale sharks, the film is scheduled to start shooting in the island province in October. It has been described as a redemption drama that follows Laya, a young woman who drifts from place to place carrying an unresolved anger from the loss of her father at a young age, until her path crosses with a lonely ex-criminal, also haunted by shadows from the past.
With a massive worldwide social media following, including 21.4 million followers on TikTok and 14.3 million on Instagram, Brillantes has also made a mark as an entrepreneur with her own make-up line and a jewellery brand.
Rein Entertainment is launching "Laya" and other projects at the Asian Contents & Film Market (ACFM), attending the market as part of the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) pavilion. Launched in 2017 by writer-directors Shugo Praico, Lino Cayetano and Philip King, Rein is building a slate of Filipino and Southeast Asian stories with global appeal.
On the series side, Rein's Manila and Hong Kong-set crime drama "Dose" has been selected for the series section of this year's Taiwan Creative Content Fest (TCCF) Pitching. The series revolves around two women – a rising triad queenpin and a relentless international police agent – who form an unlikely alliance within a male-dominated criminal Asian underworld.
