Serbis

Here's a trailer of Serbis

Brief background about this film:

Serbis is an independent film by Brillante Mendoza, starring Gina Pareño and RP’s prince of indie movies Coco Martin. The film is a story of men who offer sexual services inside a movie house. It was invited to the official competition of the 61st Cannes Festival in France and was regarded as the most controversial in Cannes for the year 2008.

The film started when the girl was saying "I love you's" in a seductive way and unknowingly her brother was watching her. 

The Pineda family who runs a theater in Angeles City, Pampanga who is also running a prostitute service inside their theater. The theater also serves as their home. Nanay Flor which is played by Miss Gina Pareño is the like main owner of their theater while her family members do their jobs as the workers inside the theater. Also Nanay Flor files a bigamy case against her husband but loses the case and feels betrayed when her own son testifies in court in favor of his father. 

Alan which is played by Coco Martin who is financially not ready to take the full responsibility for his girlfriend who got pregnant. And there was a scene where Nayda,which is played by Jaclyn Jose, saw a vandal "Ronald love Nayda" something like that. Nayda was torn between her relationship with her husband and her "feelings" for Ronald who is younger than her. 

As the film went on, I understood why is the title like that, Serbis (Service). There was another service going on inside the theater. I think it is called, gay-guy porn. Where the guys offered sexual services. It was kinda hard and not pleasing to watch, in my opinion. Because I'm not used in watching those kind of films, especially an independent film. And also the audio and the lines, some lines were not clear and I understand because of the "zz zz zz" sound. I don't like the audio. 

I may not be a good film critique but as I read reviews about this film, I now understand the film. It really showed reality. It showed social issues.
