DESCRIPTION: |
Brand new from Auraeus Solito, the filmmaker of Tuli and The Blossoming of Maximo Oliveros, BOY is a delightful and sexy “coming-of-age” story about a young poet in Manila who discovers his sexuality and falls for a macho dancer. What begins as an erotic fascination turns into a journey about family and self-expression.
