Ang Nawawala (Cinemalaya 2012)




ANG NAWAWALA (What Isn't There) by Marie Jamora 

"You like your men the way you like your comic books. With a lot of issues." 

The story revolves around Gibson (Dominic Roco), a seemingly normal guy who has a camera permanently attached to his hand, taking photos and videos. But his biggest oddity is, he doesn't speak, at all. He isn't deaf, isn't mute. He just chose not to talk, after witnessing a tragic accident in his childhood, which effect is also prominent in the tension looming over his family. Just coming home from the States for the holidays, he meets the charming Enid (Annicka Dolonius), and suddenly finds himself falling in love.
