"S.M.S", which stands for 'Sampalataya' (Worship), 'Mata' (Eye), and 'Suwail' (Insolent), is our short film project for our Film Criticism subject in Cavite State University.

This is a trilogy of some of the most popularly forwarded text message stories in the Philippines (thus the title SMS). Now remade on film, the movie showcases three stories: the atheist couple, the one-eyed mom, and the insolent son.

Due to lack of adequate time and uber hectic sched, from the original 6 scenarios, it was cut down into 3. And we've only used an ordinary Digital8 cam.

what is ATHEISM?

[neilalexandro]

You can GOOGLE it.

Does not believe in the existence of a supreme being that rules the Universe.

[kapanaligsawala27]

This is a cop out. What is the relevance of atheism in the film? Crimes are committed by believers and non-believers alike.

[neilalexandro]

In fact, we have the same perspective. I respect your honest and intelligent opinion.

Let's just say our movie's demographics adheres only on the faithful and that it does not reflect the perspectives of (one of the) creators of the movie. :)

[neilalexandro]

Hahaha. Well actually, we only realized that we've focused our film on 'faith'. :)

Originally, there are 8 scenarios. Most of them are not about 'faith'.

This makes atheism look like its a bad thing.
