    A beautiful love tale.

    I had low expectations of this low budget film. I thrilled to myself wrapped up in the romance and complexity of revisiting our past loves. You feel the excitement through the chemistry of the talented leads as they explore their feels and the lavish southeast Asian location.

    Enjoy.

    Excellent

    Cinematically beautiful and stunningly written. The two lead actors had superb and believable chemistry (the ending was terrific). Director Luke Mayze is one to watch.

    Honest movie with real characters

    Good dialogue between the lovers. Sounded like something from real life which is not too common movies from the USA. Good acting. Believable. Set in the Philippines.

    Romance and Reality

    Wow, what a beautiful film. I was captured by the setting and its colours. Loved the two characters, i could see myself in both..A beautiful yet realistic love story.

    Lots to Love

    I really enjoyed the concept underpinning this film and the issues explored. The cinematography, together with the vibrant aesthetic, worked a charm to capture and depict the locations, characters and narrative. With a thought-provoking script and emotive performances, Luke Mayze has given audiences a modern Australian romance that's definitely worth the watch.
