Pre-production

According to director Joel Lamangan, Nathalie Hart was "initially hesitant" for the lead role when he told her that she's required to do full-frontal nudity for the film, but said that "she did not have second thoughts doing it" and, "it was a project she simply could not pass up."[1][3]

Hart had to be on a diet and workout in preparation for the role.[4] She claimed that her recent breast enlargement surgery was crucial for the film.[5][6]

Filming

During principal photography, Hart said that the first scenes they had to film were those that required her to do nudity, particularly a shower scene where her bare back is revealed. The following day, after filming a sex scene with co-star Luis Alandy, she said she went in the bathroom and cried, almost prompted to abandon the project as she felt she was doing pornography. Lamangan then reassured her that he is a "proper director" and he doesn't do porn. But despite being distraught having to do the scenes, Hart chose to remain involved in the project.[7][8][9][10]

Joem Bascon confirmed in a separate interview that Hart performed her nude scenes genuinely and without the use of nipple tapes.[11]

Filming concluded in early April 2016.[12]

Release

Siphayo is produced by BG Productions International (producer Baby Go's production company).[1] Although the film's original release date was on 5 October 2016, it was pushed the following day; a red carpet premiere was held at SM Megamall on 3 October.[6] The film is rated R-16  – without cuts – by the MTRCB, which means only viewers who are 16 years old and above can be admitted.[1]

The film premiered in the 2016 International Film Festival Manhattan in New York City on 22 October.[13]
