Premiering Exclusively on YouTube on September 25 Globe Studios’ ‘Gaya Sa Pelikula’ Is All About Celebrating Queer Love

Admittedly, our perception of love — how to love, who to love, when to love — has been influenced  by all sorts of stories and tropes we see on the big screen and read in novels. In a landscape  dominated by straight leads, Globe Studios releases a powerful love story to show the queer  community that their own aspirational love stories are also meant to be told.  

Globe Studios, who has in its roster, high-caliber and award-winning films like Birdshot, Goyo,  Hintayan sa Langit, LSS and Dead Kids, is back with their first ever narrative digital series that is  surely going to bring all the “kilig” and laughter in a refreshingly unique way with Gaya sa Pelikula  (Like in The Movies). The series is a love letter for and from the community in how it freely  presents queer love, all its feelings, and all its possibilities that can lead to a most-deserved happy  ending. Without exoticizing queer love, the story is presented in the most normal way possible.  For the LGBTQIA+ community, Gaya Sa Pelikula proudly banners - “It’s time to take back our  story.”

Hintayan Ng Langit - From Stage To Film Makes A Powerful Impression

I have seen this when it was a one-act-play back in 2016.Now one of the competition circle films for QCinema, HInatayan Ng Langit is already an interesting film to look forward to. And having Eddie Garcia and Gina Pareno to play the ex-lovers Manolo and Lisang is a perfect choice.

Set as an interpretation of "purgatory," Hintayan is a place for atonement and closure. Manolo recently passed and was sent here for unfinished business. He meets his ex-lover Lisang who passed 2 years earlier and awaiting clearance on his way to heaven to be with his husband.

As the two have never met in decades, they make use of their remaining time to bond with each other and knowing more about their past. I like the treatment of the film which gave more details and depth to the play. With a lot of details that can be added, I love how they made use of the material to add fun details with the location, the signs, and even the system.
