"Burlesk King"
1999
Directed by Mel Chionglo

From the director of Midnight Dancers comes another revealing portrait of gay street life and night life in Manila. A male club dancer and prostitute, haunted by memories of his abusive father, seeks out the man who has caused him so much pain. "...a curious blend of Italian neo-realism and soft-core pornography" (A.O. Scott, New York Times). Tagalog with English subtitles. 109 minutes.
