Boy! Gising!

1995 · 107 min

A noisy, good-natured romp full of scrappy street kids, silly gags and chaotic chases that never takes itself seriously.

Directed by
Bey Vito
Overview
Vandolph plays big city streetwise kid who shacks up with a bunch of other kids like him in a makeshift home, hull of a bus, where Totoy (Babalu) lords over them as a surrogate date. Together they do their shenanigans that almost always end up in the craziest of misadventures. Until a band of underworld gangsters discover Boy's potential in one of their rackets - as a boy sumo wrestler. The kid obliges. The adventure heightens as Boy, Totoy and their cohorts go up against the bad guys in the wackiest chase ever!
