Stories told online

STORIES about love and family are the focus of season three of iWantTFC’s original anthology series Click, Like, Share which premieres tonight at 8 p.m.

The series will stream exclusively on the iWantTFC app and website iwanttfc.com.

Directed by Andoy L. Ranay, the series continues its social media advocacy while examining how technology or social media affect personal relationships.

“The inspiration of the stories is from reality, from real life experiences, that we read on social media, because we are so in it already. From the moment we wake up, we get our phone from our bedside table and then we check our social media,” Mr. Ranay said at an online press conference on Jan. 6.

The new episodes highlight the values of forgiveness, paying it forward, sacrifice, and contentment.

The first episode, “Repair,” follows a young cop James (played by JC Alcantara) who lives with the shame left behind by his late father who was a notorious convicted criminal. When the death anniversary of his father’s victim approaches, the issue resurfaces online, and James finds himself transported back in time to confront his father.

The second episode, “QR Code,” stars Vivoree Esclito as a security guard who gets fired from her job for allowing a man without a QR code to enter the building. Fed up with her misfortune, she decides to apply for a job overseas, but a series of coincidences complicates her decisions along the way.

In the third episode, “Unseen,” Jerome (Elmo Magalona) and Mariel (Jane Oineza) are longtime lovers whose relationship is changed when she goes blind after an accident. Driven by guilt, Jerome dedicates his time to looking after Mariel, until one day, he suddenly disappears from her life forever.

The final episode, “Swap,” is a tale of two sisters whose bond is torn apart by jealousy. Jessie (Belle Mariano), who envies the life of her famous vlogger sister Jenny (Shanaia Gomez), gets her ultimate wish when she wakes up to find that they have switched bodies. What follows is a startling realization that there is more to their lives than meets the eye.

Produced by ABS-CBN Entertainment and iWantTFC in association with Dreamscape Entertainment and Kreativ Den, the series also stars Allan Paule, Nikki Valdez, Mark Rivera, and Bernard Palanca.

All episodes of Click, Like, Share are streaming for free in the Philippines on iWantTFC. — MAPS
