With no memory of last night’s events, a closeted gay woke up beside a naked woman in an unknown apartment. He went berserk after realizing that he slept with a female. He could not stomach the thought of sleeping with the opposite gender. No one else knows that he is gay. But unknown to him, he was not the only one in the room keeping a secret.

Watching films with new and unpopular themes can sometimes be intimidating. Aside from unfamiliar rhetoric, the filmmakers would often preach us on what they think we must believe in. Ned’s Project proved that films can introduce a new world without the fear of coming too overwhelming. It is an ideal lesbian film for the Filipino crowd who still believes that homosexuality is a crime. With its clear storyline, commendable cinematography, and outstanding cast, it is no doubt that it rose as CineFilipino 2016’s best film.
