NSFWA struggling family (Gina Pareño, Jaclyn Jose, Coco Martin) owns a Filipino porn theater where prostitutes conduct their business.
A drama that follows the travails of the Pineda family in the Filipino city of Angeles. Bigamy, unwanted pregnancy, possible incest and bothersome skin irritations are all part of their daily challenges, but the real “star” of the show is an enormous, dilapidated movie theater that doubles as family business and living space. At one time a prestige establishment, the theater now runs porn double bills and serves as a meeting ground for hustlers of every conceivable persuasion. The film captures the sordid, fetid atmosphere, interweaving various family subplots with the comings and goings of customers, thieves and even a runaway goat while enveloping the viewer in a maelstrom of sound, noise and continuous motion.
Director: Brillante Mendoza
Writers: Armando Lao (story), Boots Agbayani Pastor (story)
Stars: Gina Pareño, Jaclyn Jose, Julio Diaz, Coco Martin, Kristoffer King, Dan Alvaro, Mercedes Cabral, Roxanne Jordan, Dido de la Paz, Buddy Caramat, Bobby Jerome Go, Jemmalyn Galicia, Julia Taylor, Nico Taverna, Aaron Rivera, Billy Ray Gali, Babylee Borromeo, Arnold Toledo
