The short film with this motto was partly interesting to me, especially when the characters find hope through sex in times of sadness and alienation. Solid music. Sad and slightly above average.
"...Když miluješ, schovej si část pro sebe, protože na konci dne ti nikdo nepomůže, než ty sám..."
Krátký film s tímto mottem mě částečně zaujal, především tím, kdy postavy v době smutku a odcizení najdou prostřednictví sexu naději. Solidní hudba. Smutné a lehce nadprůměrné.

Love yourself
I watched this because the beautiful poster caught my attention!A two part pinoy short movie (there is also a version where they put those two parts together to make a 25min movie) about two broken hearted guys who bump into each other in the night. They end up spending the night together because of the storm, healing and recovering hope for a happier future.
It is a nice little movie about hope and how not to give up on love. It is about strangers helping each other because it is often easier to talk to a stranger than to a friend.
The actors had good chemistry and managed to portray the sadness really well.
I liked the nightime cinematography: it conveyed well the feelings of loss and despair. On the other hand , the rest of the movie is rather ugly, it seems like they used up the most of the budget for those night shots! The sound in the scenes inside the hotel room was awful: echoing and hard to understand.
The story was well written though the dialogue was full of clichés. Like when you don't know what to say, you say some banality, a lesson from a life coach. I appreciate the producer's effort to provide us with subs but more often than not they were hard to understand unfortunately (I had to pause to reread them again and again!).
The background music was nothing special but the songs were rather good!
Strangers remain strangers!
All in all a good single watch!
