There is a lot of buzz on social media right now about the official mainstream screening of "Habang Nilalamon Ng Hydra Ang Kasaysayan" by Dustin Celestino, which premiered at Cinemalaya in October 2025. Young people and students are calling for more cinemas to screen this political drama, which stars Zanjoe Marudo, Mylene Dizon, Jojit Lorenzo, Nanding Josef, and Dolly de Leon. Dolly De Leon "Hydra" is very timely, especially now that the country and its people face many challenges, particularly concerning the state of the economy and politics in the Philippines. "Hydra" boldly exposes the realities of socio-cultural and political conflicts and their effects on people's lives and morality. Mylene Dizon and Zanjoe Marudo Teachers aim to have their students watch this film so that they can freely discuss social issues in school. But how can people watch it if it is only being shown in a handful of cinemas?
