Synopsis
Miss Bulalacao (2015)
What happens when a drag queen is impregnated during an alien encounter?
This is the central premise of Ara Chawdhury’s feature debut. Set in the seaside of Bilirian, Dodong is a young drag queen who finds himself pregnant after confiding in a mysterious entity in the forest. Moreover, he is further imbued with the strange ability to perform miracles. As rumors of an immaculate conception sweep through the village, Dodong and his family struggle to make sense of this inexplicable event.
