''Ang Kwento Ni Mabuti'' (lit: "The Story of Mabuti") is a 2013 Filipino drama film and the official entry to the first CineFilipino Film Festival. Not to be confused with the Filipino literary classic by Genoveva Edroza-Matute, De Guzman’s film is actually a morality tale about Mabuti, a faith healer who maintains a positive outlook in life despite her poverty. But that was until she found herself in a moral dilemma after accidentally finding a bag containing P5 million in cash that could bring an end to her family’s problems.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nora Aunor topbills CineFilipino entry ‘Ang Kuwento ni Mabuti’ )〕 The film was the first collaboration of the award winning actress Nora Aunor and the award winning director Mes de Guzman.
