They are not your ordinary theater with musicals, large stages or a school of performers for a production, red Turnip Theater is known to have intimate yet creative approach to stage plays. They have produced Closer and Cock for their first season, staged at whitespace in Makati. So what is in store for the new season of Red Turnip?

REEL DEAL: Sosy Problems REVIEW (MMFF Special)

For the MMFF, I am interested with something unique for the season and Sosy Problems was one of them. They might be mistakenly compared to another MMFF movie Desperadas which is also a band of girls.  But these girls are the super duper upper class ones with each having their own issues despite their wealth and social status.

The movie stars Heart Evangelista, Solenn Heussaff, Bianca King and Rhian Ramos as the wealthy and "sosyal" ladies. Also in the cast are Cherie Gil, Agot Isidro, Mylene Dizon, Aljur Abrenica, Alden Richards, Mikael Daez, Tim Yap, and Ruffa Gutierrez.

Though it may show their rich and lavish lifestyle, it shows an exaggerated yet entertaining execution of their ignorance and struggles despite having everything. With the people around them also causing their dilemmas, their world gets crazier and crazier.

It features many life parodies of the rich and powerful. Like the instant Millionaires, Accused Politicians, Business Tycoons, and Beauty Rivalry. There is also a touch of ordinary people which balances the social struggles and at some point reminded me of very rich kids shown in reality shows and how they breakdown. It caters to both sexes, like for the girls is the ultimate "kikay barkada, BFF Forever!" one would want to have, and for the men, the beautiful and sexy ladies who charms everyone without going all out. I think Donya Angelica Santibanez will like the movie as she is also the "Sosy" Meme!
