Miss Bulalacao

MISS BULALACAO is about a young drag queen, Dodong, who joins a barangay gay pageant to gain acceptance in his father’s community in Punta de Bulacao Isla de Panamao. He is instead met with hostility from his father, who chases him to a jungle, where he sobs to a lone bright star. What follows is the strangest night in his entire life, and an even stranger 9 months when he realizes he is pregnant. With only his stepmother, Lisa, as support, Dodong deals with ridicule from a barangay who does not believe him – until the rumors becomes a headline in a tabloid. “Bakla: Ina ng Dios”. Set in the scenic island of Biliran, the film is in Waray and Cebuano.
