Listen to the story of the quarantine gen through Viu

-

HAVE you ever felt stuck, depressed, or hopeless during the pandemic? Umikot ka mundo, nandito pa ako. Well, you’re not alone. Leading video streaming service Viu Philippine­s understand­s the struggles that many Filipinos have been going through and has created its new Viu Original musical series, Still to tell the story of this quarantine generation.

The 8-part musical narrative is designed to move us to move forward, perfectly capturing our pandemic stories and sentiments. It tells the story about a group of aspiring artists who get stuck in a music camp during the first few months of the pandemic. Just like us, each character experience­s bouts of feeling stressed, lost, and sad; but through new relationsh­ips and moments of self-discovery formed over time, they still find reasons to stay strong and hopeful for the future.
