Santa Nina tells the story of a father whose child is buried in a lahar flow in Bacolor back in 1995 (Mt. Pinatubo volcano eruption). After ten years, Pol (Coco Martin) and his co-worker in a lahar-filled quarry unexpectedly dig up the remains of his 2-year daughter Marikit. The remains of his child was perfectly-preserved and she showed no signs of decay. Inspired by whatever healing power the deceased child may have, Pol begins a campaign to elevate his kid to sainthood. But how? When Marikit resurgence stirs up emotions buried by time, and shores up questions about pure love, guilt, sin and salvation.
Fans mob Coco Martin and Alessandra de Rossi lead stars of the film. As well as fellow actors Jake Cuenca and Susan Roces who graced the event. The crowds just kept on coming. Young female fans (most of them students) started to scream when Coco walked in. The film started past 9:30 pm and ended about 11:30 pm. The premiere gala was a huge success.
