The irony of pain

This one really won my heart, pandesalawal might be a funny movie title, a combination of pandesal (salt bread) and salawal (undies).

It depicts how illness can be a big burden to everyone's life, well we are all going to experience it anyway. Though this movie tackles everything, from growing old, finding love, family, hopelessness, and in every pain (aguy) you just need to find the sparkle/shine (sinaw) to go on.

The irony of pain, is wanting to experience thing regardless of the pain it brought you, because sometimes even it's painful we're somehow happy. HAPPY WATCHING EVERYONE! PROMISE YOU'LL LOVE THIS FILM.

A magical feel-good movie!

Coming from someone who is logical and someone who loves mind-bending themed movies: I dont normally enjoy this type of genre - But probably because of the well written script, the inspiring theme, the good character build up and how the scenes were executed - the absurdity and logic gets lost and you wont really mind... I find this film enjoyable and definitely one of the best indie film I've seen in years.
