About this movie

In the aftermath of Typhoon Yolanda, TV Host-turned-teacher Jaya leaves their job and unsupportive boyfriend to pursue their passion for drag in hopes of winning the “Ms. Gay Sicogon” Pageant. Before leaving, they run into their former student, Arnel, heading in the same direction in hopes of finding his father. Banding together, the unlikely duo’s difficult yet cathartic journey is marked by a series of encounters with victims of the recent environmental devastation.

“Essential viewing as queer cinema, as political cinema and as climate cinema,” (Eastern Kicks) Seán Devlin’s ASOG emphatically reiterates the importance of resistance and companionship in a world of environmental, economic and social precarity.
