It was successful premiere night for Viva Films’ latest potboiler, Indak, a dance movie starring Nadine Lustre and Sam Concepcion.
Accompanied by her boyfriend, James Reid, Nadine was welcomed by throngs of screaming fans at SM Megamall Cinema. The premiere was also attended by Idol Philippines finalist Lance Busa, members of SexBomb NewGen, Paul Salas, and some Viva artists.
Shot in Batayan, Cebu and Should, South Korea, the film revolves around the story of a simple island girl named Jen (Nadine), who loves dancing, but never showed her true talent to anyone. Not until a video of her dancing went viral online and Vin (Sam), leader of Indak Pinas invites her to come to Manila and join them.
Not confident with her own talent, Jen hesitated to accept Vin’s invitation at first. But Vin finally convinces Jen when he mentioned that their group is going to compete at the World Dance Championship in South Korea, and that her presence in the group will have a great impact.
In Manila, Vin helps out Jen in improving her dancing, as well as adjusting living in the city. The two not only find their groove but also slowly fall for each other. With the rest of the crew, they must work together to bring out their best performance. But with struggles, dilemmas and past issues getting in the way, can they bring out a performance that will wow the whole world?
Apart from the amazing choreography, Indak also features great soundtracks like “Sumayaw Sa Indak” by Nadine featuring Pio Balbuena and Shehyee, Sam’s soulful version of “Ikot-Ikot,” and Janine Teñoso’s heart-wrenching version of “Hindi Tayo Pwede.”
Directed by the number one concert director, Paul Alexei Basinillo, Indak was shot in the beautiful island of Bantayan in Cebu, and scenic South Korea, making the whole movie a feast for the senses.
Indak unspools in cinemas nationwide on Aug. 7.
