Nathan Studios breaks new ground as the first Filipino family-owned production company to release an animated feature film in Philippine cinemas. Renowned for delivering high-quality films across action, comedy, drama, and more, the studio now ventures into animation with ‘Buffalo Kids’. This move reflects its commitment to pushing creative boundaries and producing top-tier, family-friendly entertainment.

Before the special advance screening at a mall in Quezon City, Nathan Studios’ Sylvia Sanchez expressed her excitement, saying, “Nandito na naman yung Nathan Studios, mayroong handog sa inyo na kakaiba namang movie — ito ay para sa mga bata. Ang ganda-ganda-ganda ng movie na ‘to, para sa inyo ‘to—actually, hindi lang pambata kundi para din sa atin—atin lahat, pampamilya!”

(Nathan Studios is here again with a special offering—this time, an animated film for kids. This movie is absolutely beautiful, and it’s for all of you. Actually, it’s not just for children—it’s for all of us, for the whole family!).

Directed by Gabo Galdochi and produced by Pedro Solis, ‘Buffalo Kids’ is a heartwarming journey of friendship and family that won the hearts of audiences worldwide.

‘Buffalo Kids’ features stellar performances from Alisha Weir, Conor MacNeill, Gemma Arterton, Sean Bean, and Stephen Graham. The film garnered widespread attention following its premiere at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June 2024 and it has also become a family favorite all over Europe and Asia.

Now, Filipino families will have the opportunity to experience this adventurous, heartwarming story as Nathan Studios brings Buffalo Kids to local theaters starting February 12.

As the production outfit teased on social media recently, “We’re going on a wild adventure! Heroes and villains! Buffalos in the middle of nowhere! And special friends along the way.” With such an exciting promise, families across the country will be counting down the days until the movie finally hits the big screen.

So get ready to dive into the wonderful world of ‘Buffalo Kids’.
