Synopsis
Tyron Perez stars as Dwight, who rakes in a bundle as an erotic dancer at a gay club, but cash won’t make his problems disappear in this trenchant Filipino drama. Already dating a college girl, Dwight foolishly gets amorously entangled with a scheming, middle-aged businesswoman. Meanwhile, his occasional lover (Allen Dizon) — who, at 28, is deemed too old to continue earning a living as a dancer — struggles to provide for his wife and child.
