I've watch this trailer and this movie was actually good...too bad though.
An animal rights group said on Monday that it would file charges against the people behind “Oro,” one of the entries in the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF), over the scene where a dog was

@averygirl72 the producers should have learned that killing a dog for the sake of film is wrong.

And for the opinion of the animal welfare activist, that was wrong @SIMPLYD if they don't speak against it others might imitate.

Well, it's an independent or indie film, so it's a low budget movie @youless but I admit they didn't really have to do that.

They could have cgi'd it and there will be no backlash.

That is horrifying @Letranknight2015 . How could they do such an awful thing. They should be put in jail.

That's what I'm thinking @nanette64 because they are endangered now and it's shame to see them do these things to a turtle.
