The Drama: A Marriage of Discomfort and Empathy
This is not a film, it’s a drop tower. A drop tower that you don’t get off of for the vast majority of its 106-minute runtime.

A dimly-lit evening, where the sky is painted with hues of orange and pink as the sun sets beyond the horizon. An unlikely encounter that sparks an unexpected connection happens when Yna walks towards the solemnity of the cemetery, the flicker of a candle and the fragrance of flowers gives birth to a new connection, one that transcends life and death. An unknowingly deep relationship was created as Yna bought sampaguita and met Josefina. As Josefina walks towards the cemetery clutching a well-lit candle and creating an intimate conversation. Days passed, and through their stories and struggles - a connection was forged. One day, Yna goes to the cemetery crying accompanied by Josefina as they give their warmest comfort towards each other. As they lit the candles in-front of the graves, a secret will unfold and a revelation will finally be unveiled.
