K (TV miniseries)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- See K for other meanings.
K was a short-lived Filipino television miniseries aired on IBC-13 that told the fictional story of the country being ruled by Communists. Made on a low budget, this series enjoyed a huge following among viewers and was even used as an educational reference on what the nation and Filipino lives might be like under Communist rule. Right-wingers and human rights activists in the Philippines objected to the mini-series, however, as they believed that K would only spread Communism among the people and even spark revolts between the government and rebel forces. Politics aside, K is widely believed to be influenced by the Amerika miniseries, as it was released in 1988 (a year after Amerika's release), and shared many of its themes.
