27 June 2007: Bristol Cinema - The Blossoming Of Maximo Oliveros
2006 Teddy award winner at Berlin and centrepiece screening at this year's LLGFF this is a bittersweet comedy about the friendship between a cross-dressing 12-year-old boy from a family of thieves and an idealistic young cop in the slums of Manila.
"From the opening shots of our protagonist pulling out a flower from the muddied waters of a canal, this is an impressive and vivid portrait of everyday life in the teeming Philippino capital."
"one of the most unexpected delights of recent years, anchored by a central performance from 12-year-old Nathan Lopez that is dazzlingly mature and breathtakingly charming."
"a tender, temperately dramatic look at a young person exploring his burgeoning feelings and adolescent sexuality, which Solito never allows to become mawkish or unconvincing. He treads a considered line so that there is no sexualising of his prepubescent lead whilst not being disingenuous to the feelings that the boy is experiencing."
"It is to director Auraeus Solito and screenwriter Michiko Yamamoto's credit that they view their characters through a quietly revolutionary queer perspective, portraying Maximo's pursuit of Victor, childish though it may be, as a fervently religious quest."
