Sa kontekstong Pilipino, ang “asog” ay kadalasang lalaki na nananamit at kumikilos bilang babae. Bago tayo masakop, ang mga asog ay ginagalang bilang babaylan o spiritual leaders.
[In the Filipino context, “asog” historically refers to indigenous, gender-fluid or tans-feminine individuals. Before colonization, asog were respected as spiritual leaders.]
Tara at sundan ang istorya ni Jaya, isang nonbinary (o walang kasarian) na g**o, komidyante, at drag queen na nawalan ng trabaho at binaybay ang Tacloban at Sicogon para sumali sa mga beauty pageants matapos ang Super Typhoon Yolanda.
[Let’s follow Jaya’s story, a nonbinary teacher, comedian, and drag performer who lost their job and travelled Tacloban and Sicogon to join beauty pageant in the aftermath of Super Typhoon Haiyan.]
Pagkatapos manood, samahan natin sila Jodi, Lanny, at Isa na pag-usapan ‘yung film. 🌈
[After the film, join Jodi, Lanny, and Isa for a panel discussion. 🌈]
