"You work to make them forget, I read so I can remember."

Went into this expecting a cute deadpan romantic comedy dealing with grief, and instead got a harrowing, class-aware critique of historical negationism under capitalism/fascism, often bordering on existential horror.

With this and Filipiñana (2026), I hope there's a trend for more absurdist, anti-capitalist critiques coming from South-East Asian cinema.
