Join SoCal Filipinos to watch Magellan that includes a Q&A with director Lav Diaz on January 8th at the Laemlle in Glendale, CA.

At the dawn of the modern era, Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan (Gael García Bernal) navigated a fleet of ships to Southeast Asia, attempting the first voyage across the vast Pacific Ocean. On reaching the Malay Archipelago, the crew pushed to the brink of madness in the harshness of the high seas and overwhelming natural beauty of the islands, Magellan's obsession leads to a rebellion and reckoning with the consequences of power. A vast, globe-spanning epic from Filipino filmmaker Lav Diaz (NORTE, THE END OF HISTORY), MAGELLAN presents the colonization of the Philippines as a primal, shocking encounter with the unknown and a radical retelling of European narratives of discovery and exploration.

Join us for the launch of launch "Kapwa Connect: Filipino Resource Fair," a
culturally grounded outreach initiative designed to improve access to public benefits for Orange County's Filipino community. The program addresses barriers that prevent Filipino families, caregivers, and care providers from accessing essential support
services.

The collaboration emerged from the premise that Filipino families face unique cultural barriers when seeking assistance, rooted in what community leaders describe as a cultural mindset of self-reliance.

Help spread the word.

We also invite community members, sponsors, and partners to participate
in Kapwa Connect.

Support the initiative through Zeffy
https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/kapwa-connect. Sponsorship opportunities are available for organizations interested in supporting culturally-responsive outreach to
Orange County's Filipino community.

Join SoCal Filipinos for a day at the theatre as we come together to watch Here, Lies, Love.

Here Lies Love is a groundbreaking musical about former First Lady of the Philippines Imelda Marcos and her family’s rise to power and subsequent fall at the hands of the Philippine People Power Revolution. Witness her journey through “exhilarating songs” (USA Today) and “imaginative spectacle” (The Guardian) over “90 breathless minutes” (The Washington Post).

Featuring music by Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award winner David Byrne and Grammy Award winner Fatboy Slim, and direction by Center Theatre Group Brindell & Milton Gottlieb Artistic Director Snehal Desai, comes an all-new production (the first since appearing on Broadway in 2023) in a transformative experience combining disco beats and adrenaline-fueled choreography. The show goes beyond Imelda's near-mythic obsession with shoes to explore true questions of authoritarian rule and responsibility. It is a story fueled by greed, power, and disco that feels as timely today as ever.
