A story of four beautiful half-sisters with different idiosyncrasies and issues on family and relationships, it portrays the Filipino woman's many trials and how she copes with life's unending ups and downs but in the end realizes that all she really needs is love. The film by respected Director Joel Lamangan showcases the some country's most captivating and stylish actresses today - Ruffa Gutierrez, Rufa Mae Quinto, Iza Calzado, Marian Rivera - in unforgettable roles set to make the audience laugh, cry and be entertained this holiday season.
Ruffa Gutierrez plays the role of Isabella, a single mother who somehow lost her way, a perceived brat who antagonizes her sisters. She is being courted by a devoted ramp model Vito, played by popular singer and host Jay-R.
Rufa Mae Quinto is Patricia, a sexologist who has written books on sexual relationships. She is married to Dave (Wendell Ramos), a banker. Having a carefree and liberal attitude, Patricia feels she has no problems at all until a shocking realization comes her way.
Iza Calzado gives life to Stephanie, a demure and conservative lawyer married to obstetrician Richard, played by TJ Trinidad. She openly abhors Patricia's liberal character but secretly buys her books in an attempt to address her marital concerns.
Marian Rivera portrays the youngest sibling Courtney. Ditzy and accident-prone, she's a swimwear and underwear designer who is engaged to be married to basketball star Patrick (Will Devaughn).
Desperadas is Ruffa's comeback movie after 12 years of taking a break from the silver screen. With the wisdom that she has acquired from the trials which beset her personal life the past few years, she gives a convincing performance and proves that she is still one of Philippine show business' bankable actresses.
The epitome of the modern woman: stylish, responsible, trying to strike a good balance between career and family life, Ruffa will awe viewers of all ages and genders with her impeccable fashion sense as she ramps through the movie scenes in the latest signature outfits and apparel fit for an international stylish magazine.
Desperadas will touch the audience in a light but endearing way as they relate to the situations and lives of the characters. A must-see movie for everyone who believes that in this world, all they really need is...love.
