Rekonek (sometimes stylized as ReKonek) is an upcoming Philippine family drama film directed by Jade Castro under Reality MM Studios. The entry film for the 2025 Metro Manila Film Festival tackles how six separate families deals with a global internet outage ten days before Christmas. [1]
Rekonek was directed by Jade Castro under Reality MM Studios. The film revolves around families dealing with an internet outage during the Christmas season – an idea conceptualized by Reality MM co-founder Erik Matti. [1] Castro was initially "non-committal" to the project and was not keen to work on a Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) film. He eventually committed to the film due to find a Christmas film as fitting for the MMFF, an event which traditionally starts on December 25. [2] The film was submitted as a script to the MMFF hence it was among the first four of eight entries announced in July 2025. [3]
The film also marks as lead actor Gerald Anderson's debut as a producer. [1] Part of the film was shot in Thailand. [4]
Rekonek is set to be released on December 25, 2025, in cinemas in the Philippines as one of the official eight entries of the 2025 Metro Manila Film Festival. [5] It is the sole Christmas film in the film festival which kicks off on holiday. [1]
