Dorm Boys

2012 · 90 min

A breezy, gossipy campus hangout that drifts between crushes, family aches and mild scandals without ever getting too heavy.

Directed by
Armando A. Reyes
Overview
Dorm life can be helter-skelter fun when you’re hanging out with a group of cool guys who shrug off their problems like disposable tissue. Tonton longs for the company and affection of his father who has a family of his own. On his 5th year in Engineering, Hector is still a sophomore and keeps failing his classes. To make matters worse, Hector’s gay professor is pressuring him for a concupiscent rendezvous. Iggi only dreams of making it to Canada alongside his ladylove Carla, but she is infatuated with Tonton. Ruben harbors a crush on Liezel who maybe mutually attracted to him. But the grapevine suggests that she maybe peddling flesh to dirty old men, or isn’t she? Richard, privileged but neglected, clandestinely plays around with sexy girl friend Cynthia who happens to be his teacher in college. But one day, he discovers that his girl friend is sleeping around with another guy.
