Mutya Trailers

Set in the present, the film tells the story of Mutya, a shy young transgender woman who works as a gardener at a resort south of Manila. She takes care of the blind mother of her OFW (Overseas Filipino Worker) seafarer boyfriend, Kerel. The film is anchored in their phone conversation, which may or may not be real, and becomes a catalyst for the manifestation of their individual anxieties and desires reflected in a dream like visual journey.

Reviews
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
