Child of Sorrow (film)

[6] In post-war Manila, as Cita walks home to her community located at the ruined church, she goes to the house of Aling Tinay, who was sick and bedridden, telling her that her son Vic is coming back from his service in South Korea.

The news of her condition led Vic to return to his home immediately and he entered the house, Aling Tinay finally saw her son but she dies later in his arms.

Unlike most LVN productions of the time, Anak Dalita didn't contain a single singing or dancing performance because of its theme—poverty, and crime in post-war Manila—and because the lead stars of the film were minor box-office actors.

The project was almost rejected by LVN Pictures founder and executive producer Narcisa de Leon, widely known as Doña Sisang, due to the said circumstances.

The 2K digital scanned and restored version was first premiered online on October 31, 2020, as a special screening for the Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino exhibition.
