Another offering is T.L., a provocative film exploring the consequences of ambition becoming dangerous.
Join Shiela Snow, Arah Alonzo, and Van Allen Ong in their sneaky and lustful encounters in Kalikot, streaming on March 12.
In a film by Temi Cruz Abad, Kalikot tells the story of a part-time auto mechanic who enjoys fixing cars and fantasizing about the woman who lives across the auto shop.
Van Allen Ong plays Arnold, a mechanical engineering student who works part-time at his uncle’s auto shop while on a semester break. One day at work, he sees and gets mesmerized by the sight of Salve, aka Sal (portrayed by Shiela Snow), a beautiful woman who moves into an apartment building just in front of the shop. Arnold has got it down badly for Salve that even during his sexual encounters with Jenna (Arah Alonzo), his no-strings-attached partner and classmate, he still thinks about Salve.
To Arnold’s luck, Salve visits the shop and has her car serviced, which Arnold gladly takes care of. The young man’s admiration for Salve grows stronger, which Salve finds attractive. Soon, they find themselves having an illicit affair. Worse, Arnold learns that Salve is the newest professor in his college.
What will be the future of their relationship that began with lustful desires? What other secrets and surprises will Arnold discover about Salve? Will it still please him, or will it become his worst nightmare?
Another offering is T.L., a provocative film exploring the consequences of ambition becoming dangerous.
Directed by Jay Castillo, ‘T.L.’ follows the story of Brenda (Jenn Rosa), a seasoned call center agent who, despite her hard work, finds herself repeatedly overlooked for promotion. Her colleagues allegedly resort to giving sexual favors to their TLs (team leaders) in exchange for promotion.
Although she’s disheartened by her stagnant career, she feels lucky that she gets to work in the same company with her boyfriend, Phil (Armani Hector). They even make time for their sex life while in the office. Their secret encounters come to a halt when Phil gets transferred to a different shift.
With Phil’s absence comes a new chance for Brenda to climb the corporate ladder when she meets TL Carl (Nico Locco), the man tasked with approving her promotion. Unlike other supervisors rumored to exploit their positions, Carl presents himself with a clean reputation: he is a family man with no hint of scandal. Brenda feels encouraged that her hard work will finally pay off this time.
However, it seems that Carl is harboring a secret life that Brenda will discover one day. Will Brenda finally achieve the promotion she desires? Or will her new TL only cause her more setbacks and heartbreaks? ‘T.L.’ is available for streaming on March 30.
