McDonald’s once again tugs at the heartstrings of Filipinos with its latest film, #ForeverDate, celebrating love’s quiet strength in life’s fragile moments.
With veteran actors Eva Darren, and Leo Rialp, playing the lead roles, the heartwarming film beautifully captures the story of a couple whose love has remained steadfast through the years, with McDonald’s serving as a silent witness to their most treasured moments. Conceptualized by Leo Manila and directed by Joel Limchoc of Film Pabrika, the story unfolds from the perspective of a devoted husband who patiently waits as his wife gets ready for their date, even gently drawing her eyebrows when her trembling hands can no longer do so. These simple yet profound gestures embody the essence of love—patient, kind, and unwavering. The film concludes with a poignant silent moment as the couple sit together on a park bench while enjoying their favorite McDonald’s Fries.
“In a time when social media is filled with stories of fleeting love and viral breakups, it’s good to be reminded that such love exists. We hope that by sharing this feel-good film this Valentine’s Day, we will fill our timelines with more heartwarming stories about true love. We started with this and now, we are looking forward to people sharing their own #ForeverDate stories,” said Ada Lazaro, Chief Marketing Officer, McDonald’s Philippines.
