Halik sa Hangin (English: Kiss in the Wind) is a 2015 Philippine romantic horror and psychological thriller film, directed by Emmanuel Q. Palo and written by Enrico Santos. It stars Julia Montes, Gerald Anderson, and JC de Vera. This was Edu Manzano's first film appearance after his special participation role in the 2003 hit comedy film Ang Tanging Ina. The film was released on January 28, 2015 in the Philippines.
The film deals with a young woman who is brought to Baguio by her new stepfather. While she struggles with her new family and surroundings, she finds herself torn between two young men who bring passion into her life.
A few months before Mia (Julia Montes) turns 18, her father (Jett Pangan) dies. She goes to Baguio City to live with her mother (Ina Raymundo), her stepfather (Edu Manzano), and her half-brother (Miguel Vergara). Mia misses her father terribly that she finds it hard to fit into her new home, despite her mother’s sympathetic efforts and her half-brother’s irresistible cuteness. Good thing, Mia seems to be friendly enough to have made new pals, like Alvin Paredes (JC de Vera), who, it turns out, sees her as more than a friend.
Then Mia meets a mysterious young man who suddenly appears and disappears; and he’s always dressed in black leather jacket over white shirt, scarf, and denim pants whom she gets to know as Gio Brauner (Gerald Anderson). Mia is smitten by Gio’s romantic gestures and protective ways. He teaches her to play the guitar, and brings her roses, and he even rescues her from bad guys, and helps her overcome her fears. She feels she has found in Gio her knight in shining armor who will rescue her from her incurable loneliness and deathly sadness.
