When Chris arrives at the village of T'boli in lake Sebu, South Cotabato, he thought he has left his dark recent past behind. He is working on commission as a video documentarist to make a profile on the women of T'boli and their changing views on multiple marriages. The most affluent men, called Datu, marry more than once and each time pays dowry to the family of the women they marry. When a young T'boli woman, Ngapon, tells Chris that she wants to be free from a marriage that was set by her parents and wants to go to Manila, Chris begins to confront what he left in the city. Like the proud Datu with many wives, Chris has Denver, a bronze skinned lover in Manila, who is proud of his relationships. Denver lives with Chris in an apartment as partners, yet he still goes into sexual and emotional relationships with other men. Ngapon's quest for freedom becomes Chris journey to a very sad dark past. (Source: IMDb) Edit Translation

Another of the Filipino films is shot in a documentary style, which I don't mind. What happens in the film is already sufficiently described here. I'm wondering whether the lower quality and editing was "deliberately" intentional, or whether it's really underdone, because "Chris" slips into this technique in some of his other pictures as well. I was definitely blown away by this mediocre, but quite original piece with a story, the Filipino non-solution of nudity and eroticism from the point of view of sexual orientation...
