How I Can Court You Without Holding You
Kung paano kita liligawan nang di kumakapit sa iyo
An experimental film composed of rapid cuts, digitised images, snippets of urban and rural environments that are placed against a running poem, often premised by the film’s title – how can I court you without ever holding you? But this rhetorical question is addressed as much to a lover unseen as it is to inanimate objects and to the world around the poet/narrator.
