My tour guide says this place is called True Love's Peak.
You have to be here to actually feel the vibe of this place.
There's something here...
I hope it's real.
What's happening?
A bad dream.
It was just a bad dream.
Thank God. You almost gave me a heart attack!
Mom, Oh-em! A heart attack? Really?
Can't we just say Good Morning first?
Good Morning, Mom!
Morning
Morning
Good morning Romeo! Good Morning Juliet!
I prepared some mangoes for you!
You!
What did you dream about a while ago?
I lost my voice, Mom.
And then, one man approached me.
He said my voice will return only after I've kissed him.
He almost kissed me. gross,,. annoying.
What's wrong with a kiss?
Mom, can you hear yourself talking?
What's wrong with a kiss?!
I'm blind, not deaf.
There's nothing wrong with a kiss from the one you love.
Who was the one who was supposed to kiss you? Tonton?
No, mom. Why would I even dream about that man?
Besides, I don't care about him anymore.
And I hope, wherever he may be, that he trips.
You know what, Child?
Not all men are like Tonton.
Mom, don't tell me that you're defending that man.
He's a traitor.
Out of all the liars in this world, he's the most untrustworthy!
Child, I'm not defending Tonton. I'm defending all the decent men out there.
Like Dad?
You know the longest journey you will take?
From the head to the heart.
That's the longest journey you will take.
Oh-ah , Mom.
Mom, you're being ridiculous.
For me I want to go to the capital.
And then I will audition for Extra Talented.
That's a journey I would like to go on.
Good morning, Sir Mario!
Way to get a jump on me.
Sir, Mario uhm...
Please, Sir Mario. Take me as a tourist guide.
I really need the money.
What's the reason this time?
Who else died in your family?
My dad
My condolences
Condolence again!
If my memory serves me right, your father died 3 times this year
Do you really loathe your father?
Eh, Sir Mario, he's dead for me.
My dad.
Well, the truth is, Sir Mario.
There's an audition.
At the capital. It's called "Extreme Talented"
It's a singing contest that's also a reality show.
So, I want to earn money to go there...
So that...
I can make my...
Dreams come true...
For...
My future...
Really?
That sounds great.
You have dreams?
For your future?
No.
You're not accredited by the Department of Tourism!
So you don't have the skills to become a tourist guide.
Sir Mario, please.
So, stop bothering me, Julie.
Leave me alone
I'm busy
Oh, hello there handsome.
Have fun with me?
Hi sir, If you need a tourist guide, I can be your tourist guide. Yes please. Thank you. Yes
There's my name and my number
Sir, tonight OK? Tonight seven O' clock
I'll be waiting. See you tonight.
Don't be late.
Bye.
Why are you troubling yourself with being a tourist guide?
You know, you're not as beautiful as me. But you're beautiful enough.
Young and Fresh.
If you want to earn money, stick with me.
Karen, I'm not a prostitute.
You speak as if you're a rich person.
Karen, you told me before that you earn a lot of money with what you do.
But why are you still poor?
Excuse me, bitch.
This is not about money.
I'm happy with what I do.
That is my mission in life.
To make all the sad foreigners who comes here happy.
That's the true essence of tourism and Filipino hospitality
Oh Karen
You really had to put flirtation, tourism, and filipino hospitality in the same category
You're trying to much to be a virgin.
Excuse us.
Excuse me, ladies.
Hello, handsome!
You want to have fun with me? I doubt it.
You know, I can make you happy. I doubt it.
I'm sorry darling, but we're happily engaged.
We're gay.
Go away. Go away bitches.
There's my name and my number. I don't need you.
Virgin!
Virgin virgin virgin virgin virgin!
You're a virgin! Virgin wanna be!
Oh, hello there handsome.
You like to have fun with me?
You know I can make you really happy.
You know, I can even take you to heaven.
Hi, sir!
Crazy bitch!
Hi, sir. If you want a tourist guide, here's my flyer and...
Actually I'm looking for Rodora's Hut. Is it far?
Ah, Rodora's Hut!
It's actually near here. I know that place.
You see that tree? It's just behind that tree, Rodora's Hut.
I see dozens of trees here.
Uhm, the one with many branches. Just behind.
You're kidding me right?
No I'm not kidding you
I can actually take you there now if you want
Come on! let's go! I'll take you there.
Don't worry, she's good.
Welcome to the Philippines!
Please follow me sir.
Oh, there's your cottage.
Thanks.
And here's my flyer.
There's my name and my number, my email address.
If you want my services, yes, just text me.
But from 6-7pm only because I don't have load.
So. if you need my services, just call me, ok?
Okay.
Thank you. I'll go ahead.
I hope you will enjoy your stay.
Thank you. Bye.
Hey.
Come back later. Maybe 7?
Really?
Is there a problem?
No, there's no problem. Okay, I'll be here by 7pm. Exactly 7pm.
Bye!
My tour guide says this place is called True Love's Peak.
You have to be here to actually feel the vibe of this place.
There's something here...
I hope it's real.
How much will you earn from that tourist?
Mom, that's why we're going to talk.
So I would know his itinerary, what he wants to do, where he wants to go.
So that I can charge him accordingly.
Child...
I know that you want to go to those auditions.
I just don't want you to make a wrong decision.
What kind of wrong decision will I make?
Money might blind you.
You know.
you might get forced to...
you know, right?
Wait a second, Mom.
Are you saying that...
I might sell my body just to earn money?
Child, sex is for love, not for money.
Oh Mom...
Don't be so nasty about my work.
I'm not going to do that.
I don't want to taint my womanhood.
But of course!
Because is hard to stay pure once a man or a woman had sex without love.
Imagine that. They're going to touch you, hug you, kiss you.
Mom, if you go on talking about that, I will really scream.
Child, it's okay to have sex as long as you love the person.
Hi! Hello there!
You're late.
What?
It's only 10 before 7 in my time.
It's 10 past on mine.
Well, one of us is wrong then.
Yeah.
I guess one of us is.
Well, my. my time is from the resort over there and mine is digital.
They got the exact time from Hong Kong, Dubai, New York, Paris
So, I know that's the right time and the...
yours is quite old. Was it even working?
Why are you here again?
Oh, I remember.
Because you need a job...
from me
which means I will be paying you for your services.
I'm sorry I'm late. It will never happen again.
Are we okay?
Just join me for dinner.
Okay
You know what, this is nice.
Wait, you should eat with your bare hands like this.
Come on, try it.
Try eat with your bare hands.
You know, they say "when you're in Rome, you should do what the Romans do".
Well the Romans weren't exactly protecting individual rights.
I just want you to try.
Come one just try it.
Ahhh.. Just try it.
I'm completely fine with my knife and fork. Thank you very much.
Can we discuss my rate?
Your rate?
Yes, my rate.
Because my rate is 5 dollars per hour but
it depends where you want to go and what you want to do there.
but I have my 50 dollars rate
So, if you want to get a discount from my other rate.
You can take the 50 dollars.
Sure...
Sure...
Okay, so...
How long have you been here in the Philippines?
Can we have dinner quietly?
Sure...
sure...
You're the boss.
But...
How long have you been here in the Philippines?
No, I meant no talking.
Okay, you're the boss.
Hi, Sir Mario.
You again?
No, no no...
You're not allowed here, Julie.
What are you going to do this time?
You're going to have another fund raising?
Then...
you are going to use the band for singing?
Then what?
You're going to beat up the tourist when they pick on you?
No, no, no No!
Mario, give me a break. I have a guest with me.
Oh, by the way.
Sir Mario this is Zach.
Zach, this is my Sir Mario.
Sire Mario is the manager, bartender, bouncer and sometime janitor of this place.
Mario or Sir Mario is the kindness person I've ever met!
Are you with her?
Yeah...
is there a problem?
No problem
How about a drink?
Let's go
Sure don't want a drink?
No, I just listen to the good music.
Hey, you are drinking too much.
Do you have any problem? Are you sad?
Do you have ah love life problem, family problem...
What's your problem?
...and is your business because?
Well, because I make it my business.
You know you hired me to be your tourist guide.
So, I might as well pretend to care.
Oh, pretend to care.
I'm so, what's the word, touched by your caring attitude.
Okay, I admit it.
I was just being ah tsismosa.
Okay, I'm gonna regret asking this but
what's a tsismosa?
tsismosa
Well, tsismosa is like being nosy.
Like my neighbor Aleng Tasing.
She is very tsismosa
You know what?
she tells everyone about her niece having an affair.
Yeah, I regret it...
And then the neice of Aleng Tasing
her husband
knows the secret so
what he did
he chase Aleng Tasing with his bolo (long blade)
and stab Aleng Tasing with 21 times
stab 21 times
Interesting thought
You know what?
Aleng Tasing is still alive.
Of course she is.
Alright, thanks you ah...
I like to invite my friend Juile up on stage.
Oh wait, that's my name.
Wait, I'll just sing. That's my favorite song.
I leave for a moment.

All the men who comes here are perverts.
Hey
Don't you hey me.
Hi sir... No no no...
I'm really sorry about last night.
Good you remember.
Look...
I think I don't pay you enough for...
for your companies...
No, I don't need your money.
Because that's a hooker money.
What...?
I just want to make it up to you.

What?
I said the clouds are beautiful.
The sky is beautiful.
Come on, let's go inside the lighthouse.
Come on...
to see a better view
welcome
You know this lighthouse is 100 years old already.
And the townspeople build this through bayanihan.
You know what bayanihan is?
Never heard of that?
Oh bayanihan is just like that.
They are relocating one house to another location...
by just carrying the house.
The townspeople did the same thing with this tower.
yes through byanihan
No they did not.
How did you know.
Cause it says right there
Yes, through byanihan...
that's byanihan
That tower is very stong because the townspeople they pour chicken blood all over it.
What's the chicken blood for?
Well, to get rid of the bad luck, bad spirit...
You know Kapre?
Kapre, is a giant man that lives there
there...
in the tree
and the thigh Tikbalang
is a giant man with a head of a horse.
Well...
will you actually believe me if I tell you that...
this tower
is very strong
because it has a very good structual foundations.
How do you know?
Are you an engineer?
Are you a mason, carpenter...
carpenter, are you a carpenter?
Architecture student
Wow, I'm impress.
So are you still in school?
Well, just the internship I know but
hopefull by next year I can take the architect board exam
Architect Zach Carrigan
That sounds good.
Why, thank you.
Well, what about you?
What about me?
Did you ever finish college or something?
You sound pretty intelligent.
Well, I'm smart.
Okay, what's the difference.
Well, you're intelligent when you actually know things.
While when you are smart
you don't exactly know things but you manage to sound intelligent
anyways...
That's pretty smart.
So did you ever finish college?
No, just one year of BS Education
I wanted to teach little children how to speak English
and eventually I stop becuase of my mom. She got sick.
I don't want to talk about my sad life story.
Where else do you want to go?
Have you heard of True Love's Peak?
Just last night you were a maniac.
You want to find your true love?
Isn't that a bad combination?
Please don't judge me.
Have you heard the saying don't judge the book by its cover?
You're not a book. So I won't judge you.
Stop being a smart ass, will you?
Why you want to go there?
I promise a friend of mine
that I'll go so can you get me there?
You will hire me again tomorrow if you want to go to True Loves Peak.
Then, I will arrange to rent a Habal-Habal.
What's a Habal-habal?
You will know tomorrow. After I arrange it, okay?
Alright, alright...
Where are you taking him?
Just over at Matabungkay
Is that Zach cute?
No. He's fat, he's stinks, and he's cross-eyed.
Julieta. If you're going to lie to me, say it to my face.
Okay, fine, Mom.
He's handsome, nice eyes. So what?
Oh, dear.
What is it now, Mom?
You haven't moved on with Tonton.
You might get too fascinated with that tourist and immediately give in.
Mom, Oh...
I'm not sure if you're just naturally cruel or just too imaginative.
Either way, I'm not going to fall in love with that fool.
It's not like you can fall in love that easily.
Oh come on!
You started shouting "I'm in love!" the day after Tonton brought you to that dance at the festival.
Mom, it's not the same!
Tonton was my best friend, right?
I don't even know this guy. And he's only staying here for a few days.
That's what I'm worried about.
You know, our hearts are traitors...
Even if you shut the door,
It will still open and let someone in without notice.
Mom, I'm doing this to earn money...
...for my dream. I'm not doing this for my heart.
Okay?
Is that the truth?
Yes, Mom.
Good morning. Here is your Habal-Habal.
So, that your Habal-Habal.
You could have just said it's a damn motorcycle.
Yes, is a damn motorcycle.
So let's get our ass off here so we can go to True Love's Peak.
Because you know, your true love is not going to wait for you.
Okay?
Come on... Let's go...
Let's go...
Come on...
I do it on purpose.
Yeah, yeah...
Very nice place
Yeah, nice actually.
Take a picture.
Nice shot
Yeah, thank for the pose.
Oh, you want me to tell a story?
It is about this haunted cliff.
You know what?
There is this girl...
who comitted suicide here...
and then her body was found days after.
And of course she's dead already.
And you know what?
The people here say that
they can see her ghost even in the morning
they can hear her scream every night
Is that the kind of crap you tell all your clients?
And Seriously, do you have to be in all my pictures?
Alright, these are good.
Well, I need to be ready...
always and I shouldn't be camera shy, right?
Cause I know someday I'll be a big superstar.
Okay...
Well you...

Who are these people?
Please, sir. We're just passing through.

Okay, I think this is the perfect timing to showcase what we've got...
if you know what I mean.

One...
I think they are gone.
I didn't know it could be that dangerous getting here.
I never hear anything...
from Stacy about this long hike.
Stacy?
Who is Stacy?
Just a friend.
or girlfriend?
You're such a tsismosa.
You remember
Well, I'm not that tsismosa. Just a little...
So why did she ask you to find True Love's Peak?
She believe in it.
Hey, what are you doing?
Why are you getting naked?
I'm not getting naked. I'm changing my shirt.
Okay change now, change.
Yeah yeah...
I'm conservative. I don't like to see things like that.
Really? Conservative?
So wait, you've never seen a man with his top off...
with his bare chest?
You are not funny.
What? I'm just flexing some muscles.
I mean, you can look away.
Hey...
What? I'm taking a piss...
don't look at me
You know what?
I have this friend who pee on the rock...
and the...
he didn't actually...
ask permission to the enchanted things living there...
and the next day
his balls got so big
You remember the big horse with the big balls?
Yeah like that
That's suppose to scare me because?
Well, because is the same rock you are peeing on.
Yeah, you think that would scare me?
I think that one!
You're such a child.
You know you told me a lot of stories about...
enchanted rocks...
huanted trees and...
beings...
Yes?
but you never told me anything about True Love's Peak
Oh, what about it...
What do you want to know?
Exactly what you know.
Well, is about this man in the late 1980s and
He curved this trail up here to get his wife on top of the hill...
because is her wish to see the place before she goes blind
and to see the beauty of the place one last time
before she looses her site of everything that is beautiful
That sounded lovely...
but it doesn't seem that you belive in it?
Because is a myth
but you are a woman
suppose to love all this kind of romantic stuff
and you are a man, you are not suppose to believe in this crap
That bitter about love huh.
You know I'm just practical. I don't believe in true love anymore.
I belive in my dreams I belive in myself
and I believe that I will be this big some day.
That's what I believe in.
Welcome to True Love's Peak.
No...
Hey...
Are you sure this is the right place?
Yes...
There is the Pacific Ocean and there is the sun about to set.
No, no no no...
this isn't the place...
I don't see that tree in the video
Maybe because the tree is not there.
There is a rock.
I don't see the rock in the video.
Maybe...
your video is wrong
I'm your tourist guide. I know the ins and outs of this place.
I don't know what's you game is right now, okay...

You have to be here to actually feel the vibe of this place.
There is something here.
I hope is real.
What did you do, Julieta? Why did you deceive him?
Mom, I don't want him to believe in the story of True Love's Peak.
Because it's not real.
Is that how hard your heart has become?
Mom, that's not really true.
I know what is true or not true.
I know the truth.
Don't judge your father. He carved that path for me because he loved me!
And then what?
He left us because you became a liability for him
Yes, he left us.
But I know that he loved me when he made that path for me.
That might be true.
He might have loved you.
But do you think it was true love?
Child,
Two people need to fight for true love.
I could've fought for your father but I didn't because I want him to be free.
Child,
We are all looking for true love.
Don't deny it just because you got hurt.
People who don't believe in true love.
Won't ever be happy.

Actually, I don't want saying goodbye.
I don't like not to say goodbye.
Please...
come
Where are you taking your guest today?
Nowhere, mom.
Why?
He's leaving today.
What's with the face?
Mom.
You're blind. How can you see my face?
I'm blind but I'm not insensitive.
I don't' want to tell you that I told you so.
But I'm going to say it anyway.
I told you so.
How far have you journeyed?
Did it reach the heart?
Mom? It is possible, isn't it?
You can develop feelings for someone who you've only just met.
Are you not going to at least say goodbye?
Hey buddy.
Can I get your bags, Sir?
Sure
Thanks for everything. I have to go now.
You welcome...
Can you give this to her?
Okay, I will.
Maybe you are right to say we can not beging something
just as we're about to end
but I want to tell you
that if I'm given the chance again to be with you
I will take it
and I want to take what I'm feeling right now
to a place where I know we will both be happy
Maybe someday
who knows
All I hope
is that we don't become just mere memory of each other
thanks for the time you spend with me
Finally...
I want to tell you
I'm in a much happier place right now.
