The cast: Mga Basang Sisiw

GMA Network launches Mga Basang Sisiw, an afternoon drama series that will make viewers feel that someone shares and understands their sorrows and hardships.

Inspired by the 1981 blockbuster film Mga Basang Sisiw, GMA reinterprets the well-loved Agustin dela Cruz film.

Mga Basang Sisiw is topbilled by Ms. Lani Mercado, Raymond Bagatsing, Gardo Versoza, Caridad Sanchez, Maricris Garcia with Mike Tan; featuring the Network's discoveries Renz Valerio, Bianca Umali, Kimberly Faye, Hershey Garcia, Miko Zarsadias, and Maxene Magalona in her first kontrabida role.

In the series, Froilan Sebastian's (Raymond Bagatsing) family can be described as picture perfect. However, his wife Olivia's (Lani Mercado) distant relative Vicky (Maxene Magalona) plotted to destroy their marriage by making it seem like Froilan has an affair with her. Because of this, Olivia together with their five kids - Justin (Renz), Faye (Bianca), Shine (Kimberly), Cha (Hershey) and Mickey (Miko) - decided to leave her husband. Froilan's family end up in a plane crash; only the five kids survived and they couldn't find Olivia's body.
