 YOU + ME WILL ALWAYS BE BACK THEN is a short love story set to AJ Rafael’s legendary song, “When We Say (Juicebox)”– just reimagined from a queer woman’s perspective.The film follows two Filipina leads, Maya + Sam, through various moments of their intimate relationship. The story explores identity + acceptance, and provides a compassionate view of a reality LGBTQIA+ people continue to face, “What do you do when you’re out, but your partner isn’t? (or vice versa?)”… Ultimately, this film is about love, loss, + letting go. |
