Hanggang Kailan (English: Circle of Hearts) is a Filipino drama series produced by GMA Network. The series features Lorna Tolentino, Christopher de Leon and Alice Dixson as the lead characters. Hanggang Kailan was directed by Jose Javier Reyes and Mark Reyes.
Taunted different kind of drama series, Hanggang Kailan is infused with a rich balance of light and dramatic moments reminiscent of everyday life. It also breaks new grounds in terms of production—it is shot more like a movie than a standard teledrama. It also sets the standards in terms of casting. The drama series, in fact, boasts a stellar cast that has never been assembled in a movie or teledrama before like Lorna Tolentino-Christopher de Leon-Alice Dixson love triangle.
The series is a brilliant collaboration of GMA Network’s Jimmy Duavit, and directors, Jose Javier Reyes and Mark Reyes. Bibeth Orteza heads the writing team. The directing chores are shared by the award-winning scriptwriter and director Jose Javier Reyes and his nephew Mark Reyes.
The series integrates music as part of the narrative. Ogie Alcasid has lent some songs he has written in the last couple of years to be used in the show’s soundtrack. Some songs will be interpreted by Alcasid himself, and the others by Aiza Seguerra and other stars.
The series used music not just as background effect, but as an important element that will clarify and explain certain emotions of the characters.
Dado (Christopher de Leon) and Valerie (Lorna Tolentino) are two lovers forced to end their relationship when the latter’s father uses her as a payment for a gambling debt. Many years pass and Valerie returns as a wealthy divorcee and mother of two. She is determined to win back the love of the man she lost in her youth. Instead, she finds that Dado is on the brink of marrying her half-sister Thelma (Alice Dixon) with whom he already has two daughters. The lives of this triangle are fraught with drama as the tug of love plays out between them. Drawn into this conflict are Thelma’s daughter Angela (Maxene Magalona) and Valerie’s son Warren (Jake Cuenca) They must fight the feelings they have for each other while the question of whether they are related still hangs over their heads.
