The Republic Of Us

Two college students fall in love during election season. One comes from a politically influential family that benefits from corruption, while the other is an activist documenting the struggles of ordinary Filipinos. As their relationship deepens, they're forced to confront questions like: Can love survive when your values clash?

"Why do you keep fighting for people who don't even know your name?"

And the other replies:

"Because someday, someone I love might need a country that cared enough to fight for them."
