BRIA Homes affirms a lesson in its newly released film, “Upa”: why rent a tiny dwelling when, like the happy couple in the film, the family that moves into a beautiful BRIA home can be you?

This is the scenario that tugs at your heart as “Upa,” a film released by BRIA Homes, depicts the story of a small Filipino family as they deal with the manifold problems of living in a rented room. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Chris Cahilig, with Lyka Bernal and Juan Carlo Tarobal as lead stars, “Upa” wields an important lesson as the couple’s troubles come to a head: sometimes, the hard knocks are life’s ‘wake up’ call.

The ‘wake up call’ in “Upa” comes when the wife discovers the joys of living in a BRIA community through a friend, a BRIA homeowner who pushes her to take the first step towards moving to one.

Indeed, losing their rent money to theft and their dinner to freeloading kapitbahays are just two of the eye-openers that finally rouse the couple into action. Seeing their dear friend happily settled down in a beautiful BRIA home, husband and wife  check out a family-friendly BRIA community—and like what they see: well-designed homes in a wholesome and secure environment that boasts modern amenities and facilities designed for its residents’ enjoyment.
