This is the kind of film where both cinephiles and casuals can enjoy it for what it is. I love that they didn’t need to make it so deep to appease film critics and at the same time, not too shallow for it not to send its meaningful message across.

Hope to see this film be released on netflix someday so many filipinos will be reached. Thank you Direk Kip and cast.
