Angelica Panganiban expresses frustration over piracy

The actress supports director Antoinette Jadaone over issue of leaked film

8 Jul - Angelica Panganiban was furious for good friend, director Antoinette Jadaone, following reports that the latter's new movie has been leaked online.

As reported on Coconuts Manila, the actress recently expressed her frustration on Instagram over "Achy Breaky Hearts" being illegally uploaded by irresponsible Netizens, saying, "Do you know how hard it is to make a story? A movie? A scene and a shot? What we have to do, to think, and to surprise so we can act properly?"

"Our job is very difficult. We are not destroying the livelihood of the people watching pirated movies. But you? Aren't you taking away our livelihood?"

She also called for fans to boycott films that are illegally uploaded online, and to stop piracy.

Jadaone previously expressed her anger over the leaked film online, saying, "It is true, Filipinos will kill fellow Filipinos. We are killing our own industry. We ask for change, but we cannot change ourselves."

This isn't the first time the director's movie was leaked online. Back in 2014, her movie, "That Thing Called Tadhana", co-starring Angelica Panganiban, also became a victim of piracy.
