Bini Chapter 1: Born To Win is a Philippine documentary film that explores the rise of the Filipino girl group Bini. The documentary provides an in-depth look at the group's journey leading up to their first solo concert, Biniverse.[1] This is the first of a three-part documentary series about Bini which was released on September 26, 2024.

Background

[edit]

The documentary focuses on a pivotal period for Bini, including their preparation for Biniverse, a three-night concert held at the New Frontier Theater in Quezon City. The series sheds light on the group's journey and the milestones they achieved in 2024, such as packed mall shows, significant streaming achievements, and a rapidly growing fanbase. The announcement for the documentary was revealed at the final leg of a three-stop nationwide tour by the group in General Santos on July 20.[1]

The documentary is produced by iWantTFC and ABS-CBN News and Current Affairs. The series offers exclusive behind-the-scenes footage and interviews with the members, highlighting their experiences and challenges in the lead-up to what became their first solo concert.[1]

This was also the joint reunion project between the news and entertainment divisions of ABS-CBN since I Dare You.[citation needed]

Synopsis

[edit]

The film features the origins of the group and its members as well as the initial years following Bini's formation, including significant events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the shutdown of ABS-CBN, and the group's rise to prominence following the release of their song "Pantropiko" leading towards the preparations for the Biniverse concert and the concert itself.[2] It also deals with events concerning individual members, including the death of Sheena's mother before their group's debut, and Aiah suffering from anxiety during the Biniverse concert.[3]

The documentary was originally scheduled for release on September 8, 2024, on the streaming platform iWantTFC but was later moved to September 26, 2024.[4] An advanced screening for select fans was held on September 23 at the Gateway Cineplex in Quezon City, which was also attended by Bini members Colet, Maloi, Mikha, and Jhoanna.[5]
