CGiii Comment

It's the same old twaddle from the Philippines...

The shower scene is hysterical - obviously, the actor didn't want to go au natural and showers with his underpants on...laughable.

The acting is atrocious, the photography is over-exposed and the constant piano music throughout will have you checking into the nearest asylum in next to no time.

A pitiful waste of time.

The(ir) Blurb...

Rene (Paolo Rivero) is supporting his ailing grandmother by running the family business. His grandmother's friend is constantly trying to set him up with various women, hoping that he'll finally settle down. What she doesn't know is that Rene is gay and that he's in love with his driver, Levi (Kristoffer King). Rene is far too shy and reserved to ever admit his love, but one weekend, his inhibitions go away as he takes a trip to the seaside with his beloved driver, who might be hiding a secret of his own. When they return to the city, neither is prepared to deal with the consequences of his actions.
