Hero Angeles returns to the small screen and plays the challenging role of a transgender who stood as a mother to an abandoned child in the special Mother’s day episode of “MMK.”
Pia is a loving and caring child to her parents. Even though they strongly disapprove of her gender identity, Pia remains respectful of them.
In the middle of her search to gain her parents’ acceptance came a little angel in the form of Lester, a Filipino-German child left by his prostitute mother. For a person who was not fond of children, Pia saw Lester as an added burden to her many responsibilities.
What will cause Pia’s change of heart? Will Lester be the key to Pia’s reconciliation with her parents? Will her gender identity matter to prove her worth as a mother?
Joining this upcoming episode are Cherry Pie Picache, Louise Abuel, Emilio Garcia, Bugoy Cariño, Roxanne Barcelo, Jeff Gaitan, Miho Nishida, Lolie Mara, Marnie Lapuz, Marithez Samson, and Kamille Filoteo. The episode is directed by Dado Lumibao and written by Joan Habana and Arah Jell Badayos. “MMK” is led by Star Creatives COO Malou Santos.
