Instead, it navigates through the lens of ordinary people who struggle between love and survival.
Here are three reasons why Britney and Alvin’s love story is worth watching at the cinemas in the words of “Third World Romance” director Dwein Ruedas Baltazar.The film takes the unusual route to feature relatable characters—a raketero and a raketera—and their love story that blossoms at the supermarket where they work.
“Kung minsan nagsasawa na ako na yung mga protagonist na napapanood ko ay nasa boardroom lang sila, nagpre-present ng kung anu-ano. So lagi ang trigger points ko ano ba yung trabaho na kaya kong hawakan na malapit sa akin,” said the director who chose a grocery cashier and a bagger as the center of the love story presented in the movie.“Third World Romance” zeroes in on the plight of the working class but does not romanticize their situation. Instead, the film makes it fun yet realistic.
“Dadatnan mo na yung mga characters ko living sa ganung ka-normal na environment kasi ako as a storyteller, yun ang gusto kong itawid, normal ito. Hindi na ito big deal,” said Direk Dwein.
