The love story of Andres & Oriang

MANILA, Philippines - ”Love and war are the same thing, and stratagem and policies are as allowable in one as in the other,” said a famous 14th century Spanish writer.

In the episode of GMA 7’s Katipunan, Andres Bonifacio shows he is a master tactician, employing stratagems and policies in love as in war.

Andres treats courtship like a battlefield requiring tactics, patience and careful planning. For her part, Gregoria de Jesus (Oriang) shows, that despite her tender age, she is a brilliant tactician herself. 

Andres is at a disadvantage in courting Oriang. He is a widower several rungs lower the social ladder than Oriang’s other suitors, and is much older than the woman he loves. Yet he wins.

Tonight’s episode outlines the strong bond between Andres and Oriang, one that will see them through the numerous battles they will face as husband and wife.  

The cast is led by Sid Lucero as Andres and Glaiza de Castro as Oriang. Roi Vinzon plays the role of the ruthless Padre Villalon.  

Katipunan airs Saturday nights at 10:15.
