Liwanag Ng Hatinggabi is a Philippine horror television drama and the first installment of the GMA Mini-Series. Conceptualized by GMA Network's vice president Gilberto "Jimmy" Duavit, Jr., the series is inspired by a trend in Latin American literature known as magic realism, which blends the biting realism of contemporary social issues with the supernatural, where the fantasy becomes commonplace. Directed by Joel Lamangan, Liwanag Ng Hatinggabi revolves around Amanda, a despotic governor whose decisions affect the lives of the people in her province, and her daughter, Luna, who falls in love with Gabriel, a childhood friend who becomes rebel fighting against Amanda's tyranny..
