Following its success at the 50th Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF), GMA Network's critically acclaimed and heart-wrenching drama Green Bones continues to enthrall moviegoers during its third blockbuster week across the nation.

Widely referred to as one of the best Filipino movies of recent years, Green Bones has undoubtedly earned its place as a must-watch masterpiece.

Produced by GMA Pictures and GMA Public Affairs, and co-produced with Brightburn Entertainment, Green Bones dominated the 50th MMFF Awards, winning six major awards: Best Picture, Best Actor for Dennis Trillo, Best Supporting Actor for Ruru Madrid, Best Screenplay for National Artist Ricky Lee and Angeli Atienza, Best Cinematography for Neil Daza, and Best Child Performer for Sienna Stevens.

Directed by award-winning director Zig Dulay, Green Bones follows the story of soon-to-be-released prisoner Domingo Zamora (Dennis Trillo) who was incarcerated for the murder of his sister. His release is put in jeopardy by newly assigned prison guard Xavier Gonzaga (Ruru Madrid) who makes it his personal mission to keep Zamora behind bars.

The concept behind Green Bones, which stems from an original story by GMA Public Affairs senior manager JC Rubio and was transformed into a screenplay by Lee and Atienza, has drawn crowds who are intrigued by the idea of the presence of green bones as proof of someone's goodness in life.

Green Bones is distributed by Columbia Pictures for Sony Pictures Releasing International.
