Old problems require new solutions and for Kapuso Jasmine Curtis-Smith, the age-old problem of piracy movies is now her dilemma for “Midnight In A Perfect World.”
Jasmine aired her concerns in an Interview with GMA Network.com. “It is really sad and I really hope we get a point wherein film piracy here and any other media for that matter, may it be a digital series on YouTube or any video-on-demand streaming platform, sana maging kasing strict sila like sa other countries one day.”
