Arman
and Leo, two young boys and best friends living in the province, share a
common past-time: writing down any dreams that they have and discussing
them together for no reason at all. On his way to their next meeting,
however, Arman realizes that he is being followed by someone who might
be haunting the dreams he refuses to reveal.
A simple short film that brings me back to my childhood memories.
My Verdict: 3.5/5
Pektus
tells the story of a day in the lives of two men in the city -both
proud, indifferent, and bound by the confines of their milieu and their
choices in life- and their incidental yet preordained meeting in a
one-way alley that would change their lives thereafter. Raising
questions of how far people have control over what happens in their
lives, the film seeks to explore circumstance versus choice, breaking
points, and second chances.
I love the edit, pacing and message of the film
My Verdict: 4/5
Ang
Maangas, ang Marikit at ang Makata (The Cool, the Fool, and the Lovely)
is a one-act play for film about the characters meeting on an ordinary
day. Alfonso, a warrior from the Other Side goes to town in search of
the Captain for a payment that is owed to him. He arrived at the house
seeing Liwliw, the Captain’s daughter practicing her dance.
Complications arise when Delfin, a passionate poet, serenades the young
lady.
Intellegently done witty short film with deeper message that would like to unveil.
My Verdict: 4/5
