Still from the film Anita’s Last Cha Cha

Description

As part of this year’s Vancouver Queer Film Festival, Out On Screen presents Anita’s Last Cha Cha / Ang Huling Cha Cha ni Anita.

A captivating take on first love, Anita’s Last Cha Cha begins as twelve-year-old Anita spots a mystery woman, Pilar, during the Bulacan fertility fiesta—the Pista ng Obando—and declares, “That’s the woman I’m going to marry!” With beautiful shots of the sunny countryside and its depictions of unstructured childhood spent in wide open fields, Anita rings with charm, and reminds us how a little cha cha can make a dream come true.
