Above Everything Else (Sa Kabila ng Lahat)

--== McEphie ==-- For latest releases visit moviesnipipay website

The state of the nation cannot be hidden.

Damage is seen on the streets.

Rivers are neglected to death.

The air has become poisonous

due to the development of factories and industries.

Young beggars are starting to crowd the streets.

The hills of trash have become their monument

that call the attention of tourists.

One out of four people has no shelter.

More people are getting unemployed.

False solutions are sought from the dark corners

through using drugs .

While the prices of commodities are increasing,

criminality has become the twin of authority.

However, the biggest crime happens inside grand edifices.

This is the crime that leaves no corpses,

but the death of our collective future.

Conscience gets lost inside these great walls.

Here, we are entertained by debates and speeches.

Here, we are fed with promises,

our dreams are being minimized,

and our dignity are being stolen.

The poor people are being fooled.

However, the biggest tragedy

is for us to be silent.

Remember.

History has no patience with apathy.

This is Maia Robles for Punto Blanko.

Ladies and gentlemen.

The best public affairs television show of the year,

goes to...

Punto Blanko.

To receive the award is the show's host,

Ms. Maia Robles.

Thank you.

- Congratulations. - Thank you very much.

Thank you very much.

It is rare to get two awards in a night.

But anyway, I would like to thank my sponsors,

and Mike.

Even if he's just new in the program,

he is really a good writer,

and a dependable segment host.

Thank you so much.

Punto Blanko will continue to fight for public interest.

Thanks to all of you,

and to my idol, Maia Robles,

for trusting me.

Thank you so much.

We defeated them all,

and you got the Best Newscaster Award!

Give me a bonus, okay?

Mr. Tino.

Maybe you forgot.

We'll go to the Chinese restaurant.

The group is waiting for our celebration.

Food?

Lauriat?

Can I get money instead?

Shameless!

With the awards, you should get a bonus.

Three straight awards!

I'm amazed.

Wow.

Cathy, where's our cameraman?

Ogie is already there with his beta camera.

Hey.

You promised to resign from your radio program once we won.

Just resign, you won't have a future there.

The fans might miss the voice of Mike Serrano.

Wow!

Shameless.

What's happening?

Mr. Tino, please stop the car.

Major, is there any problem?

Ms. Maia Robles, congratulations!

I watched the awards night earlier.

Please pass the other side of the road,

a Chinese man is being held as hostage.

We're heading in the nearby Chinese restaurant.

I am sorry Ms. Robles,

but this is a secured area.

This is a scoop!

Come, let's get off the car.

Okay.

Cathy, find Ogie. Faster!

Ms. Robles, please stay behind me.

Mayor, what's the situation here?

Where are they?

A Chinese man is being held as hostage up there.

The area is secured, snipers are in position.

Dude, there are lots of dollars!

- I told you there are lots of dollars! - Yeah, you're right!

This is Mayor Velasco!

You! Come here!

Let's talk. Don't choose violence.

Turn off the light! Hurry!

In the name of God and your fellow men,

let us stop this violence.

Hello? Help me!

- Help me! - Give me that!

Hello! Who are you?

- Who is this? - I'm asking, who are you?

We can talk this over.

Damn you!

Who was it?

Who was it?

Okay, here's what you'll do.

Talk about what's happening in this country.

Just like graft and corruption,

garbage and crime.

Just like what's happening now.

Something like that, okay?

Okay, ready.

Ogie, okay?

Good evening.

Another life is in danger

in the hands of-

Cut! Again.

Cut. Again.

Good evening.

Another life is in danger

in the hands of wicked men.

The authorities are doing-

We know you're there, Van Turko.

Bind him.

- Stand up! - Stop this now.

You're being surrounded by authorities.

Van Turko!

I'm warning you.

Don't wear out our patience.

Hey!

That's enough!

Take care of the garbage, instead!

Make way!

What's happening?

Ogie, come here!

Mike, wait!

What's that?

Shall we surrender?

Moron!

I'll check an escape route.

Watch over him!

You're rude!

Learn how to respect the authority.

Mike!

There's gunfire now, hurry!

Ogie, let's go!

That's enough.

Boss, you can check on the other side.

We'll take charge here.

Let's go!

Turko!

Sir Boga.

You failed again!

Sir Boga, what now?

The one you targeted is an ally in the syndicate.

I didn't mean to.

I can't fix that.

I can't let you pass, lots of people are there.

Give that to me.

What now, boss?

Let them arrest you.

I will take care of you.

Go to the left side.

Never run to the right.

I don't control the men there.

Go! Quick!

No problem, boss.

God bless you.

Don't shoot! I surrender!

Move aside.

Come here.

Come here.

Ouch.

Where are you going, Daniel?

Bring him now.

How come Van Turko got in?

I don't know.

There was a sudden commotion.

I'll now proceed there.

- What can you say, sir? - Don't touch me!

You're rude!

Daniel, stop!

Mike, stop it!

Rude! She's just asking you!

You know?

I know that lady.

I'm sure.

We thank Mayor Velasco

for resolving the crisis last night.

Truly, he is known for his sincerity,

and now for his bravery.

We hope good things will continue to come.

We hope for our trash problem,

unfixed roads,

prostitution,

prostitution houses like

the one operated by a Chinese mestizo,
