The 20-year-old “Sana Maulit Muli,” directed by veteran director Olivia Lamasan, is one of the most romantic movies in the 1990s. This is the second big screen team-up of Aga and Lea, following the success of “Bakit Labis Kitang Mahal” in 1992.

It tells the story of Agnes (Lea) who, after waiting for ten long years, must leave her long-time boyfriend Jerry (Aga) after her mother’s petition to finally join her in America was finally approved. The two try to make it work at first but distance eventually paves the way for them to end their relationship and part ways.11737959_1644332189111719_1734411616306145093_n

Filled with regret, Jerry quits his job and travels to America to be with Agnes. He, however, discovers a whole new Agnes very different from the woman he used to love. Will Jerry be able to bring back the love that was lost? Or will it be too late for them to rekindle what they used to have?11204421_1644332155778389_974803153269970612_n
