We watched this during the Sydney Mardi Gras 2023. One of the best films in the QueerScreen Film Festival. Definitely will keep you in your seat. Must watch.
Thank you for watching!
Available na sa Prime!!!
I must say, Romnick deserved the Best Actor Award. Elijah as always never disappoints. Damn that twist though! Hands down to the prod grabe although this is not a big production film, sobrang bawi sa writing, directing and the performances delivered by the two.. ugh
kop to do to set 📐📐📐📐📐📐 a wonderful day ever epb have a wonderful day ever epb have a wonderful day 😢
Elijah is really versatile actor , his always on fire on his character scenes. just getting excited on this on a big screen . welldone.
Agree. Makafall.
Saan pede mapanood hehe salmat

Romnick should be given more projects. He’s a good actor.
I agree.. he embodied any portrayal of characters of projects he is in..
Romnick is an underrated actor. I’ve been a fan since his Gulong ng Palad years as Peping.
Not really. He was the most famous of his batch during his younger years along with Sheryl Cruz and their movies were all blockbuster hits. He’s also nominated in various acting awards.
@andrei liver actually, I only knew him as a famous actor, pero didn't know na he is a good actor pala. In fact, sobrang nagalingan ako sa kanya dito.
He won best actor for this film 😊
I'm glad Romnick is getting back in movies now❤. My Idol since High school.
Naka upo lang sila the whole duration of the movie, and so am I. Never looked away from the screen. This movie will be on my top list tradition. I will print its poster and post it on my wall.
Wow, Elijah Canlas looks so handsome in this. Please tell me this will be on streaming sites too.
This song fits them sooo good
I was grinning the whole time in the middle of night like crazy under the blanket that no one hears my laughter
may song pala di ko naman narinig
Saw it today. Super galing nilang dalawa. Congratulations🎉🎉🎉
What is it about?
I hope Elijah‘s international fans can watch this soon too
We will be posting on our FB page about future international film festival screenings
sana mailagay sa Netflix ito
Just watched this today on special screening. There's so much more to watch than what the trailer is portraying. If you've watched the film, I think you would agree with me that the very substance of the film is not captured fully on the trailer. Or maybe because I've watched the film first before the trailer. Nevertheless, it's worth your money. Love the flow and the straightforwardness of the conversation and how the characters shift emotions gracefully.
is it a bl po ba??
@@chaechae6342 no po. The characters are from lgbt but their relationship is far from romantic. Mas closer pa sila as enemies kung tutuusin 😂
It's not actually a BL or the story does not revolve around that although Marcus and Eric are couples for 17 years. It's a beautifully aching story.
@@chaechae6342 what's BL?
@@simplysaycheese it stands for Boy's Love genre po
This looks amazing! Thank you, IdeaFirst, for always giving us something to look forward to.
very interesting and intriguing comments seems like it's a good movie hopefully after a month netflix had a chance to get a copy of this 😊
Wow!!!!excited to watch this film...the best Ka romnick
ABOUT US BUT NOT ABOUT US - A CRITIQUE
(SEMI-SPOILER ALERT) 🚨
You guys want an honest critique? I’ll give you one.
This an hour and a half psychological, queer-inspired drama film by Jun Lana got me nailed to my seat, at full length, of the said movie. It is not that i got all my eyes and biases for Elijah Canlas (I mean, like, who wouldn’t fall for that dazzling look of his?) but dude, this young man’s acting and that of Romnick Sarmentas’ were truly I-M-P-E-C-C-A-B-L-E!
Definitely, one for the books. I must say.
The exchanges of lines were made with such eloquence and sophistication. The delivery were on point. To me, it felt more like a full-length dramatical dialogue than it was a movie.
This is, by far, 1 out of 2 #SummerMMFF entries that made me want to unleash my “I-want-to-watch-this-movie-so-bad” inner demon. The fact that the whole film was shot in just one setting (a single plot only), will make you realize how praise-worthy of a movie this is. No wander it bagged most of the movie festival awards including Best Film and a Special Jury Prize for my dear Elijah Canlas.
Furthermore, the whole movie conversation are insanely well-woven (artistically-fit). It is way, way different from those movies whose conversations will bore you to death. I was greatly astonished as to the how the storyline was laid. Apparently, there were explosions of revelations - one revelation to another. The kind of revelation that will really get you psychologically affected (if not, partly disturbed).
For lack of a better word - PUZZLED.
Few of the questions that are going through my mind right now are the following:
- What really prompted Marcus, Romnick’s partner (Ericson), to commit suicide? Was it really because of extreme jealousy or was it because of fear for the possibility of an unjust publication of his work and therefore, a possible loss of ‘artistic integrity’ over a non-fictional novel about the 3 of them (a novel chiefly written in the Filipino language)?
- What was the intention really of Lance, who happens to be Eric’s former student, for befriending him? Was he romantically-involved in any way or was the intention really is to steal one of Marcus’s (or someone else’s) unpublished work in order to gain instant literary fame and stature?
- Is Lance really that eager to publish a work under his name which, obviously, he did not author? Is he really willing to put their lives and/or reputation (specially that of Erics’) on the line despite Eric’s kindness and for all the things he has done for him?
- What is set to happen for Eric and Lance now that Marcus is out of the picture? Will their sort-of-platonic relationship (student-teacher relationship) progress into something romantic specially that Lance, later on, admitted himself to being queer?
I, definitely, need answers. Enlighten me, please.
If i were to rate this move, i would give it a striking (9.5/10 rate) - a minus 0.5 for the cliffhanger!
KUDOS to all the hardworking people behind this film, to the main casts and to the writer/director of this brilliant work of art.
MABUHAY KAYONG LAHAT!
MABUHAY ANG PELIKULANG PILIPINO!

Grabe bumitaw ng linya si romnick.
Romick for Gawad Urian for Best Actor☺️
Galing ni Romnick and elija
Congrats Rommnick I guess tapos na ang era ng 80s grandslam acting prowess, its about time for the 90s naman .
Guys, watch this. Highly anticipated ko to but di ako nagexpect ng todo kasi baka umasa ako. BUT THE FILM DIDNT DISAPPOINT. This is Direk Jun Lana's best since idk, Anino sa Likod ng Buwan?
Grabe. Conversational siya thruout the duration of film but never naging boring, actually, bitin pa! Sobrang galing ng actors. Theyre perfect for the roles.
And to give you a hint, this is not BL guys. Yes, queer characters but far from BL or romance. This is a psychological drama.
Looks exciting. I am thrilled to watch this
Go and watch na
Romnick x Elijah 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Mkakapanuod na ako neto Bes .. 🤣🤣 Galing tlaga ni Eleja at Romnick

Medyo provocative nga trailer pa lang eh parang bawal sa mga conservative yung topic but if sa Int'l film Festival eto talagang Grand slam mga ganitong movie. Kaya congrats pa rin at least recognize ba rin siya ng jury dito sa Pinas.
Excited to watch this on the big screen!
Bakit hindi ito pinalabas dito sa Rizal! Kainis! Love this!
I want to watch it in a big screen. When will be started the movie?
Where can we watch this?

EDIT: I have watched it on Prime Video. 😊
Magbayad ka. Nakakahiya naman sa mga gumawa ng movie tapos maghahanap ka ng online.
@@JacobthePugYes, my "online" here mean watching it on legal streaming sites like Netflix etc.
Anyways, wala na akong pakialam sa 'yo kasi I have watched it na on Amazon Prime. Very legal. :) Masyado ka namang nag-judge.
Eh bat nagtanong ka pa kung san mapapanood online kung meron ka naman pala. Pabebe ka masyado para lang mapansin eh
Interesting based on the trailer. Wanna watch it

Parang kabit at original naguusap ang peg nito. They had a common lover. Parang compare notes sila kung sino mas minahal.
Or he's a schizophrenic. The use of same eyeglass is a giveaway.
Hahahaha lol mweset😂
Saan mapapanood to?

Amazon prime

The director said that this film was his conversation with his youngself focusing on his personal issues
san to mapapanood 😭
Ano ito movie it's BL with thriller mystery?
I have a feeling na si Romnick at Elijah ay iisa. Its like Elijah is a young Romnick. Psycho_thriller movie.
Ganto dapat ung trailer. Hindi kinikwento ung buong story.
Gusto ko Yung binatawan niyamg word na "putang Ina mo!" Kailan ba ito mapapanood sa cine?
I wonder kung may bed scene silang dalawa 🤔
Bakit ang gara ng title 🧐🧐🧐
Di ko naintindihan, need to see comments. Mukhang pwede na.
Congrats Hakot award
first
R18?
Robin Padilla left the chatroom
i didnt llike this movie, not a fan of One setting, and focus is characters.
i know na yung focus ng movie is about stortelling and direction but its so boring, wouldve been better if they actually showed the story kesa parang recap lang. it would be more entertaining.
Want some bl
This is
@@Bucherviews want of cairo and gavreel 😭😭
@@Bucherviews the lead of Gameboys
Gay themed is different than fanservice genre called BL.
@@kawaiipotatoes7888 I think the line is pretty blurred on this one, actually...
Tara na kakampuwet panoorin na natin movie ni kakampwet romnick
Coll, where we dont understand anything. kkk
We don't understand but we don't understand 😆😁
Ito yung pelikulang nakaupo buong eksena, pero best actor at hakot awards 😂😂😂
Another good looking movie I will not be able to watch. 😅
Because?
@@random-accessmemory9201 These movies are not on TH-cam like Gameboys and Pearl Next Door were, not released in theaters where I live, and if they were, there would be issues with subtitles. Therefore, it's another good-looking movie that I won't be able to watch. ✌
Gay story ba ito?
I really don't like this movie too much talking and not good watching nothing exciting
Woke film pala.
Nagkwentuhan lang ba sila sa isang resto? Dun lang umikot istorya? Kaya pala dalawa lang silang bida😂
Yes. Medj nakakainip sya
@@domprovost5334 napanood ko na...
Nakaupo lang best actor na agad?😮
Mabuti di sila napagod sa kakaupo sa buong eksena😂😂😂
@@hyekyosong3112siguro mga paborito mo movies mga cliche romantic movies lmao baba ng standards mo
But, Romnick encouraged us not to watch his movie. So, I will not watch it. 😅
He's very persuasive 😂.
yeah, a lot of you were throwing hates against the film and the casts, but they bagged most of the awards.
@@ivankarllobaton6723 hahahaha, I'm not hating the movie and cast. I'm just saying, I'm not watching it because one of the main characters encourages us not to watch it. Don't pass the blame to us and don't play the victim card. You must see the big difference between Kakampinks' style versus non-kakampinks. Instead of convincing the neutral people, they bashed them, and practiced the cancel culture. Do they have awards? We don't care. Awards can be bought or given based on a biased judge. We have a long history of some getting an award but not deserving.
Romnick is a good actor but not a good husband and father.
