Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in Cebu, the film leans into Visayan romance tropes rarely centered in Manila-dominated Filipino cinema. The provincial setting isn't just backdrop—it's the reason Bert and Elise's paths could realistically cross again.
Enchong Dee and Janine Gutierrez had never worked together before this; their awkward chemistry in early scenes was reportedly genuine first-meet tension that Ferrer kept in the final cut.
