True to form to their themes of love and its different vagaries, filmmakers Paolo Villaluna and Ellen Ramos follow up their highly-acclaimed debut film ILUSYON (Rated A 2005, Cinemanila IFF 2006, Pusan IFF 2006) with the tragic tale of 3 characters in Selda. The film stars Sid Lucero, Emilio Garcia and Ara Mina. Also starring are Michael de Mesa, Allan Paule, Soliman Cruz and Ping Medina.

Set in two contrasting enivronments that undeline the same premise of imprisonment, Selda tells the story of Rommel, a young man who accidentally kills a boy, resulting in his incarceration. Inside the jail, he befriends another inmate, Esteban, who becomes his rock and protector. Seven years later, Rommel is living in the province as a farmer together with Sita his wife. Esteban tracks down Rommel in hopes of renewing a brewing love affair. Rommel and Sita welcome Esteban into their lives, until their intimacy crosses borderlines and results in the undeniable scourge of self-discovery.

Selda is a return to classiscist forms and delivers a stylish, deliberately-paced treatise on love. At moments strange, Selda is a sublime and disquieting portrait of a young man whose search for happiness, innocence and true love is laden with guilt and doubt.

WATCH ITS SPECIAL SCREENING ON DECEMBER 23, 4PM AT ROBINSON'S GALLERIA INDIESINE (Cinema 8).

    The purpose of the movie is to share a reality from the society we live in. You are the fool dahil napakaplastic nang understanding mo - sobrang babaw. Daig mo pa prep. Baka naman ikaw ang walang discernment dahil kung makapanghusga ka, daig mo pa si Lord. Bitch!

  • wow, another gay ...

    wow, another gay pseudointellectual appearing high and mighty and trying to justify the existence of this truckload of gay movies just because they "seem" to be well-made and well-lit. don't be fooled so easily by gorgeous sets and unorthodox storytelling by movie makers who are trying to be "cool" but are just self-absorbed mama. i know what you lack - "discernment" hehehe. chenes chenes ecklavu. bwahahaha. apir!

    I already have reservations on watching digital films by Filipinos. They dont know how to condense their shots and the storytelling usually drag you to sleep. There was nothing new and extraordinary in Pagdadalaga. Compound was non-sensical.

  • i saw the film with ...

    i saw the film with my wife too during the premiere. we agree it's one of last year's best films. it does take its toll (a little bit) on your patience, but despite the length, the film really moved us. really thought-provoking. and ang galing ng cast!

    i saw the film last december. maganda sya. im wondering y PDGF mentioned 'gay movie' when it's not. it's actually a very refreshing experience. compared sa ibang digital films na pinalabas last year na sobrang nakakasuka. this is right up there with TRIBU and PISAY as 2007's best films. Panuurin nyo! Pero para lang sa may mga utak hahahaha
