00:00How much is it to play the role of Trisha?
00:30And nung lumalaki tayo, wala tayong nakikita masyadong representation ng community na totoong buhay ng mga bakla.
00:36Laging ang bakla yung katatawanan, laging bakla yung...
00:40Side character.
00:42Pero nung napanood ko to, nasa big screen ang community ko.
00:47And ito yung mga totoong nangyayari sa buhay natin, di ba?
00:52Nasa pageantry.
00:54Ang dami kong kina-relate doon na hindi siya tanggap ng tatay niya.
00:58Kailangan niyang umalis para mag-flourish siya.
01:01So, isa din yun sa mga ginawa ko nung baguets ako.
01:06Hindi naman ako sa...
01:09I mean, love naman ako ng tatay ko.
01:12But ako mismo yung natatakot.
01:14That's why I had to move to Manila.
01:18And nung nasa Manila na ako, doon ko na-discover lalo yung art of drag.
01:23And parang somewhat relate yun kay Trisha.
01:26Kaya, di ba siya, nung umalis siya, mas nakapag-pageant siya.
01:31And mas nag-love din siya ng totoo.
01:34Naging mother siya.
01:36And nakapili siya ng mga family na tatanggap sa kanya.
01:40Which is, ganun din tayong mga bakla.
01:41Di ba?
01:42We get to choose our own family.
01:43And madaming mga bagay na nakarelate ako doon.
01:48And I hope, na-move yung life ko noon, nung napanood ko yun.
01:52And I hope itong play ay makatouch din ng lives ng mga makakakita.
01:56Mas ma-open yung minds nila na hindi choice maging bakla.
02:03Pero, ito yung reality.
02:06And I hope na mas ma-open natin yung minds ng lahat for acceptance.
02:15For, para moving forward, magkaroon na din tayo ng rights.
02:19Yes.
02:19As LGBT in the Philippines.
02:22And na pwede din tayo magmahal.
02:25And, ayun.
02:27Correct.
02:27Kaya naman passed the Soji bill.
02:30And congratulations sa mga LGU na may right to care card.
02:33Oh my God, grabe.
02:34Congratulations sa inyo.
