Indie Film: Rome and Juliet
Synopsis
ROME AND JULIET follows the romantic journey and soul mating of two straight women caught in a web of forbidden love.
Juliet (a conservative pre-school teacher) is a bride to be who befriends and hires Rome (a liberated businesswoman) as her wedding planner. As they go through the preparations, Rome and Juliet develop a deep friendship, a soulful connection and a love that is physically consummated. But conflicts arise when Marc, the groom who is a young politician, shockingly discovers the ongoing relationship between the two women.
Angered and humiliated, Marc calls off the wedding and a huge scandal explodes, leaving Rome and Juliet in a state of emotional turmoil. Not long after, Juliet is driven away from home by her mother, gets fired from work and later becomes a victim of a road mishap that puts her in a coma. But in the end, despite all the trials and hurdles Rome and Juliet’s unconventional love for each other remains strong and intense.
I watched this film while I’m at work (to keep me awake). I really like its story. Acting performances of the lead characters Mylene Dizon and Andrea Del Rosario were also great. Seeing this movie will give you an overview on how our society dealt with the lesbian relationship and it convincingly relayed its message about gender equality and how the third sex community experienced hardships, discriminations.
