The beauty of friendship in ‘We Will Survive’
CEBU, Philippines - Comediennes Pokwang and Melai Cantiveros team up for the first time to show viewers the beauty of life and friendship in ABS-CBN’s newest feel-good drama, “We Will Survive,” which premieres tomorrow.
Pokwang and Melai portray the roles of childhood friends, Wilma and Maricel, who grew up in Bicol. Despite having different personalities, they are brought together by life’s uncertainties and painful experiences.
The show is produced by the team behind the feel-good dramas, “Be Careful With My Heart,” “Dream Dad,” and “Ningning,” all helmed by veteran director Jeffrey Jeturian.
“That’s how life is, right? No matter what we go through, whatever tragedy we face, we Filipinos will survive,” said Pokwang.
“Viewers need to watch because it’s a unique offering. They will get inspiration and good vibes from the program,” added Melai.
Get to know Wilma (Pokwang), a reserved beauty salon worker and the breadwinner of her family. She faces one of the biggest challenges in her life when her boyfriend leaves her because she is not yet ready to commit to marriage because of her obligations to her family.
Maricel (Melai) is a bubbly and charming manager at a hotel who lost her parents at an early age and was raised by her grandmother. She experiences her first heartbreak when she finds out that her boyfriend chose a different path.
What other challenges will test Wilma and Maricel’s friendship? Amidst all of these, will they still be able to firmly tell each other, ‘We will survive?’
