Barbie Forteza and Eugene Domingo bring comedy and drama to Netflix with Kontrabida Academy, premiering September 11.

The film follows Gigi (Barbie Forteza), whose life is in shambles — from work to family to her love life. Everything changes when Mauricia (Eugene Domingo), fierce and fabulous, invites her to enroll at Kontrabida Academy. Here, Gigi learns three rules to thrive: be bad, be bongga, and be brave.
The story blends humor and heart as Gigi’s transformation challenges her to embrace her inner kontrabida while finding the courage to face life’s messiest moments.
Kontrabida Academy is part of Netflix’s growing slate of Filipino content, accessible to over 300 million paid members in more than 190 countries.
