Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of people who like stories about real, flawed people. Leaves you with something to think about.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 35 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

In 1970s Mindanao, a man and his family take arms to defend the people against those who would oppress them.
