CANNES: The message in GMA Worldwide’s family drama Someone to Watch Over Me is that true love can endure through anything.

The series portrays the hardship of a wife caring for her husband afflicted with advanced Alzheimer’s.

Another GMA Worldwide highlight, Ysabel, shows the struggle of a surrogate mother who flees with the unborn baby after her own child dies in an accident. “The story highlights the power of the human spirit,” says Roxanne J. Barcelona, the VP of GMA Worldwide.

Meanwhile, Encantadia is an epic fantasy about the battle among four sisters and a kingdom’s war against evil.

“The appeal of GMA programs stems from their engaging plot lines and interesting characters,” Barcelona says. “The programs are empowering for men and women, young and old.”
