Unlocked

An anthology of six stories about gay relationships during the lockdown in the Philippines. Episode 1: Andrew & Brix (July 9, 2020) Andrew is mending a broken heart. It's been months since he broke up with his longtime partner Zeph. He still feels trapped in the memories of his relationship. He tries to keep himself busy with a lot of things to forget Zeph. He eventually finds himself searching for guys on a gay dating app. On the evening of the quarantine, Andrew feels especially lonely and decides to invite Brix, one of the rent boys he met online. As the night progresses, their conversations open up a lot of possibilities: healing and connection, lust and love and probably moving on. Is Andrew ready to commit again with someone like Brix? Episode 2: Calvin & Drake (July 16, 2020) Calvin and Drake are "lovebirds" since college. But that was before, when they are still very much in love with each other. Now, the truth is, their relationship is in a limbo. Not even good sex can save that. For more than two weeks now, since the declaration of an "enhanced community quarantine", (ECQ) throughout the entire Luzon, people are anxious to get out, like Drake who is very eager to get out of the apartment. He should have been on a vacation with her sister, Yumi in Palawan, if only Calvin had allowed him to go before the lockdown happened. Unbeknownst to Calvin, Drake is contemplating for a "break-up" since the ECQ started. For him, that vacation is his way to reflect on their "crumbling relationship." (Source: GagaOOLala Website)
