I also looked for subtitles, but it is possible to watch without them. Rather than a drama, I took this picture as a partial documentary. Most of us probably know how the Philippines is today, how the lower classes of the population live and that there is a certain smaller percentage of young people who are allowed to do almost anything. And this movie is really not just glitter, but reality, I had to look for the beauty of the Filipinos this time, unfortunately, almost with a magnifying glass, and after being fed up with the American RuPaul's competition, those transvestite beings rather reminded me of masked monsters...
