Two guys, friends, who have lost touch and have not seen each other for quite some time met again at an event, From the onset, we'll surmise that they used to be in a relationship, and must now face the truth about their past.
I must warn you that watching this mini movie will hurt, a lot, sepecially if you are a gay guy who has experienced loving the same sex and has been forced by society to stop.
Good cinematography, good script. It reminds me of a watered down version of a Hollywood movie Before Sunset. The sound however is a little too tiny i have to read the subtitles just too understand the conversation. This is how Pinoy BL dramas should be judged, not the titiliating indie movies a few years back.
I would have given the story a 10 if they didnt make the fiance a girl.

Příjemný krátky film, kde byl důraz kladen a většina času též na oba dva hlavní herce postav Red-a a Nikko a byl zahrán velmi pěkně, jemně. Nebyly tam žádné pinoy manýry a překvapilo mě, že už jsou závěrečné titulky, které zabraly téměř čtvrtinu celé stopáže, čekal jsem tudíž, že po titulcích bude ten "pravý" konec. Nebyl. Prostě život ...
