Ang Tanging Ina (lit. 'the only mother') is a 2003 Filipino comedy film directed by Wenn V. Deramas and starring Ai-Ai delas Alas and Eugene Domingo. It was the highest grossing Filipino film until it was surpassed by Sukob in 2006. Each film was produced or co-produced by Star Cinema.
The film's success spawned a television series of the same name and three sequels entitled Ang Tanging Ina N'yong Lahat, Ang Tanging Ina Mo (Last na 'To!),[2] and Enteng ng Ina Mo.
The film references the story of a widowed mother who has 12 kids. And the social sacrifices of parenthood in a comedic and dramatic manner.
