Kung Aagawin Mo ang Lahat sa Akin (English: If You Take Everything from Me) is a 1987 Philippine drama film directed by Eddie Garcia from a screenplay written by Jose Javier Reyes and Gina Marissa Tagasa, based on the comics serial of the same name by Helen Meriz. The film stars Sharon Cuneta and Jackie Lou Blanco. The film centers around an intense sibling rivalry between a younger daughter named Gladys and an older sibling named Maureen who was adopted before she was born.[1][2][3][4][5]
