Flower
Girl is here to blow your world, and just maybe, make you feel like
losing a vagina along the way! This new film blooms from the creative
trifecta of The IdeaFirst Company (And The Breadwinner Is…, and Die
Beautiful—you know the vibes), Octobertrain (Bwakaw, Barber’s Tales) and
CreaZion Studios (of Isang Himala and Everything About My Wife fame).
Starring Sue Ramirez, Martin del Rosario, and Jameson Blake, with
KaladKaren and Maxie Andreison serving face and fairy magic, it’s
written and directed by Fatrick Tabada who also wrote Patay na Si Hesus.
The
plot? Buckle up, mga accla. Sue Ramirez plays Ena, a sanitary napkin
endorser-slash-modern Filipina navigating life, love, and
suddenly—charan!—no vagina. After offending a trans woman, played by
KaladKaren, in a women’s bathroom, telling her that she should use a
men’s room instead. This trans woman turns out to be a fairy or a
babaylan and casts a curse on Ena. Ena wakes up missing her most
precious poochy. The only way to get it back? Fall in real, genuine,
tadhana-level love before a magical flower sheds its last petal. Kung
hindi? Goodbye, girlhood—hello, flat down there, no more poochy forever.
“This
film is an irreverent comedy that tackles a very relevant topic: Gender
Politics; but we made it fun, fearless, and fierce,” says director
Fatrick Tabada. “We’re talking real questions like: Kung mawala ang
flower mo, who will still love you? More importantly, who are you
without it?” Ang deep, ‘noh?
“Part
of our mission is to give light to issues that are kept in the dark,
and this film reminds us that there is still so much unheard of when we
discuss the Filipina story,” TheIdeaFirst Company’s President and
Director Perci Intalan.
CreaZion
Studios’ CEO RJ San Agustin adds, “As we champion Filipino stories,
we’re also challenging the norms and rewriting the HERstory of the
modern Filipina—with or without poochy.”
So if you like your comedy meta bursting with poochy’s and plot twists, Flower Girl definitely slays!
Coming to major cinemas this June. Ready ka na bang mamukadkad, acluh?
