被誉为『连绉纹都识演戏』的Anita Linda，一个近镜，便可看出每一个演戏细胞，跃跃跳动。岁月不挠人，Adela年轻时曾是广播界的大红人，老来獃在马尼拉贫民区过日晨，今年的八十岁生辰，见证了生命的奇蹟。生活虽然足襟见肘，但胜在活得有骨气，有力气，菲国导演Alix Jr用平常心去看世界，从满载世俗羁绊眼光的贫民世界中，却拍出人性的光环。多产女星Anita Linda敬业乐业，神采飞扬，以83岁高龄吐气扬眉首次夺影后，为甘草们争番啖气。Using an octogenarian Philippine radio personality as his main character, festival favorite director Adolfo Alix, Jr. shines a light on how poverty and the plight of the elderly are intertwined. ADELA stars Anita Linda, a prolific Philippine actress who at 83 won her first leading role in decades. Alix, Jr. gives the mundane and familiar heightened meaning, capturing the nitty-gritty of life in the slums, and the loneliness of an 80-year-old woman bereft of family on her most important day.
