Akalingwan nang Rosa (Rosa Forgets) is a 2017 film directed by Max Canlas as his film entry for Cinema Rehiyon 2018( a film festival in promoting regional films of the Philippines.)
The film was spiced by the comedic intro and then fades with heart-felt scenes. One of the things that I’ve learned from watching this film entry is that love transcends! Regardless of your gender and sexuality.
The Protagonist (Rosa) is a good example for that. He’s a trans woman but soon, he decided to be a man to make her wife happy and to be a father-mother too in their child.
Other than the idea that love transcends, I’ve learned that no matter how your brain forgets the memories or people, the heart will surely remembers. Perhaps not all of your memories but the feelings and emotions that you have in the person will surely be bring back faster than how your brain could ever do.
Just like Rosa, who woke up from coma. Although he forgot that he had sexual reassignment 2 years prior the accident he was involved with that leads him into coma.
Their daughter helped him in coping up and recollecting his memories with his wife. He doesn’t remember most of his memories but he remembers the major events and above all, he remember how much he loves his wife.
truly, Once you love a person, you cannot unloved the person. No matter what circumstances because the heart will remembers.
