Film description
Sarah and her son Emman live in a small town they moved to a couple years before. She spends all her time working – teaching online and making dessert popular in the local community. The son is less ambitious – he lost his job, sleeps in, and secretly meets up with Amy, his mother's helper, and the two of them get high together. Emman knows Sarah can never know about his romance. What will happen when the secret is revealed? Will the family stay together?
Jun Robles Lana, the controversial master of Filipino cinema well-known to the Five Flavours audiences, once again invites us on a perverse journey through the labyrinth of human lies and passions. Everyone here has something to hide and is ready to use even the most immoral means to secure their position. This intense, shocking picture, thick with relationship interactions, will cause many an outcry and trigger lots of heated conversations long after the screening ends.
