The Garden of Earthly Delights
Feature film, 2025, 124 min.
In the slums of Manila, eleven-year-old scavenger Ginto fights for survival and dreams of becoming a gangster, but as he crosses paths with a troubled Dutch tourist, he’s forced to make an impossible decision.
In the stormy slums of Manila, eleven-year-old Ginto fights for survival, dignity, and freedom. He wants to be a gangster rather than a scavenger and clashes with his sister Asia, who engages in sex work in pursuit of a better life. While he grapples with his blossoming sexuality, identity and feelings for another boy, Ginto’s path crosses that of Dutch tourist Michael, who is drawn into the underbelly of the city’s red-light district. As their paths converge, Western wealth and postcolonial poverty collide in a brutal garden of earthly delights.
