GAYA SA PELIKULA

5 Actg/Cast 10 Mic 10 Rewatch Value 10 This is the story that everyone serv to see Alright, so now I n fally wre my real review of Gaya Sa Pelikula, when I first saw the trailer of Gaya, I knew I had to watch this seri e the trailer had so much packed to but I was skeptil bee I have seen so many seri wh like great trailers and the seri would turn out to be absolute trash but that’s not what Gaya Sa Pelikula was. IF YOU ARE READING THIS, I WOULD LIKE TO START WITH THE ENDING QUOTE OF GAYA ‘LIBERATING LOVE AND EQUAL RIGHTS, TO EVERYONE OF US, THE REAL FIGHT IS ON THE OUTSIDE. This is the most important msage of the seri and what I want you to rry away wh youGENERAL REVIEWGaya is what I nsir a real-life seri, where reflects actual real-life seri.

I am so glad didn’t have any of the trop you see a lot of Thai seri [I poted out Thai bee I have seen Taiwan don’t do this as much even Poy seri don’t], like the ‘I am straight bro, but I jt love you bee mystil forc the galaxy fell the right plac’, no, they gave me real gay characters, they gave me some hard tths about the g out procs, how some people sayg the word ‘GAY’ or treat like a taboo sometim, they showed most of the fear and emotns that acpany g, they didn’t pat like this rosy path and all love, the ternal nflict so many people face to e out and be themselv. Gaya was not another annoyg jealoy storyle [ey tharntype 2], was a seri that actually kept s st small and ma sure that no character was left unveloped and they actually had a story to tell, one which they executed perfectly. Gaya Sa Pelikula is the life story of you or someone you know; feels really right om the get-go and everythg done has a purpose and is very relatable.

To talk about the characters I would tertwe wh some key sentenc and I would actually refer to this person on YouTube that ma the bt reviews after each episo [ if you check the ment sectn you would get what I mean]Vlad is gay and open about , he is outgog, que stubborn sometim, and giv you this first imprsn of a rebel, but we e to see that he is this soft, cute lovg guy, who is que vulnerable and has been hurt before.

‘I will not be the plot vice to trigger someone else’s inty crisis’ This le uld hontly easily one of the most powerful l the seri and one of the scen that Gaya started to pull away om other seri which give this ual trope of, ‘YOU ARE DIFFERENT’ ‘YOU MAKE ME FEEL THINGS I CAN’T EXPLAIN’ ‘It is JUST YOU AND NO ONE ELSE EVER’, now don’t get me wrong, I am not sayg there aren’t people that have only been wh one person of the same genr, I mean my iend is an example but the fact that we have been overfed this trope almost every seri mak tirg and annoyg, SOTUS, Dark Blue Kiss, Water boy, Theory of Love, name the seri, is jt like a back to back-feedg of beg gay is not normal, a once a livg thg. I first loved the fact that Vlad was openly gay and proud of .

GAYA SA PELIKULA

This le kd of bunks how homophobia has changed the view of the word ‘gay’ or anythg associated wh , as almost taboo, but this le prents Vlad has someone who has gone through all and has arrived at a posn that he lov, a reprentatn that I loved. What she right, we n bate that, but the tth is that is what a lot of fay members would do, not jt for their gay fay member but for any fay member. The tth is that is sry to face the tth and we got showed that so many tim Gaya, but what is most important is that we move our own pace, we shouldn’t be forced to sh.

I’m gay but I still n’t tell papa, I love Vlad but I am not as brave as him – Karl and Santi replied – Soonc. Vlad on the other end also unrstood her served not to be someone’s secret [that is genuely damagg sometim, speakg om experience] but the most important thg was that he did not force Karl eher, he chose to look out for him and be wh him, not necsarily a relatnship but beg there gave Karl the right support and strength to ph forward and for me, that is what love actually I said, I love Gaya bee didn’t jt give me two handsome guys and a lot of skship, but everythg was so well planned, I don’t know if there was a send of the seri that was ‘irrelevant’ to the overall story and experience, everythg me full circle [or is cycle] at s own time, no story was shed, no actn was left unexplaed, no scene was accintal or whout purpose, which I thk go to show great wrg on the si of the script.

As I said, no character, scene, or moment was wasted They perfectly plement each other the st and characters, they somehow all jt felt like the perfect balance, and the fact they never really left that sgle Un/buildg is another md-blowg thg, like, m the r scene wh Judh, I don’t thk they left the I have never been someone that really r about OST, I am rarely big on OSTs, they don’t really move me, but Gaya’s OST is the first seri asis UMWA, history 3, where your ey lger and the effect, where the OST perfectly fs every part of the seri, mak you feel their joy, pa, and every emotn... Thank you for brgg this to the world a year as dark as 2020IF YOU ARE READ THIS FAR, I WOULD LIKE TO END WITH THE ENDING QUOTE OF GAYA AGAIN‘LIBERATING LOVE AND EQUAL RIGHTS, TO EVERYONE OF US, THE REAL FIGHT IS ON THE OUTSIDE.
