Mike De Leon's ‘Citizen Jake’ to be screened in March

Acclaimed director Mike De Leon's "Citizen Jake" has a release date and venue. 

The official social media accounts for the film revealed that it will be screened at the Cine Adarna in the University of the Philippines - Diliman on March 10. 

More details will follow a week after this initial post. 

Post-production for the film was briefly halted in November, but the "Citizen Jake" team on Christmas Day announced the details of its premiere. 

"Citizen Jake" is journalist Atom Araullo's first foray into a new but familiar medium. He is joined by Max Collins, Luis Alandy, Cherie Gil, Gabby Eigenmann, and Teroy Guzman.

The film's main plot is kept under wraps, but De Leon in an update on social media said that it is both a tribute to LVN studios and an expression of his alarm over the return to power of the Marcos family. — Aya Tantiangco, GMA News
