A long night of chance, camaraderie, and cruising plays out in Some Nights I Feel Like Walking, a sexually-charged coming-of-age drama from Filipino director Petersen Vargas.
Set in a bustling corner of Manila where the nights are sleepless and desire hangs in the thick, humid air, the film follows Uno (Jomari Angeles), a twinky street hustler, and Zion (Miguel Odron), a rich teen looking for a new home. The two share a brief encounter in a bus terminal, but end up going their separate ways.
Two years later, the young men meet again as hustlers booked by the same client. Captivated by the allure of Uno and his ragtag band of brothers, who look out for each other and make a quick buck when they can, Zion thinks he may have finally found his new chosen family, until the night takes a tragic turn that will change the course of their lives forever.
With kinetic camera work that glides across grimy, intimate spaces, Some Nights I Feel Like Walking draws viewers into a hypnotic cinematic experience, telling a tender story about queer belonging while never shying away from the gritty realities of life on the streets.
