Muli (The Affair) – 2010

Muli is one of the most prominent gay films in Philippine cinema, telling the story of a long-lasting love affair between Jun (Sid Lucero) – a smart, tough gigolo – and William (Cogie Domingo) – a successful lawyer with inner conflicts.

The film not only revolves around physical passion but also delves into loneliness, the desire to be loved and the pain of “unnameable” relationships. Their love is both intense and fragile, tested by distance, responsibility and unspoken fears.

With strong and authentic acting, Muli becomes an emotional picture of gay love in the context of conservative Philippine society, leaving a sad but hauntingly beautiful aftertaste
