Serbis
La familia Pineda –un matriarcado alrededor del cual pululan hijos, nietos, primos y sobrinos- regenta un viejo, barroco, decadente y laberíntico cine dedicado al género erótico. Mientras los miembros de la familia suben y bajan escaleras en sus quehaceres cotidianos, viven ajenos a todo lo que acontece en la sala y los más que poblados pasillos del cine, en los que la prostitución y los travestis campan a sus anchas. Con la bulliciosa Manila como incesante ruido de fondo, el cine, que es también la vivienda de la familia, se revela como un microcosmos con sus propias normas. Especie de neorrealismo a la filipina, la aridez y aparente crudeza de la acción (que apenas abandona el cine) no hace más que aumentar la ternura que despiertan los miembros de este sorprendente clan. Quizá no resulte tan irónico que el nombre del cine sea Family.
