MANILA, Philippines - Two years after its premiere, indie film ‘Ang Nawawala’ launches its DVD to the tune of some of your favorite local acts.

It took awhile, but it’s arguably worth the wait. Since its premiere in 2012, director Marie Jamora’s indie drama Ang Nawawala has captured hearts all over with its touching story of love lost and regained. Now local cinephiles can revel in the emotions on repeat as the film launches its DVD this weekend.

On Sunday, Dec. 21, from 3 p.m. to the wee hours of the morning, Heima Brixton will be transformed into an indie holiday dream through the “Ang Nawawala DVD Brixton Block Party’s Christmas Edition Kabuhayan Showcase.” Aside from throwing a party that is literally a mouthful, the Ang Nawawala team is celebrating its DVD launch and screening the film with uncensored live commentary. And because one can never have too much of a good thing, other merchandise such as the film’s well-loved soundtrack will also be on sale.

The evening will be peppered with performances by homegrown bands. Featured at the party will be Ang Bandang Shirley, Tarsius, Flying Ipis, Mikey Amistoso and Jazz Nicolas. Emerging acts such as B. P. Valenzuela, Ourselves the Elves, Plant A Tree, and CRWN are also slated to make an appearance. There will also be a DJ set by 2 Many Cooks, composed of Ang Nawawala co-writer Ramon de Veyra and Marie Jamora.

In between (or even during) sets, folks can check out what lifestyle store Heima has to offer. Aside from their usual stock of sweet-looking furniture and virtually anything pretty (from design books to washi tape), the store will be holding a sale. There will also be a mini-bazaar at the event, with a variety of pre-loved and new items featured. Last-minute Christmas shopping will never be more of a breeze.
