'Bahala Na' is a short narrative-dance film about the Filipino diaspora of a first-generation immigrant navigating to find his cultural identity. The short film follows the story of Juan, a young adult who feels out of touch with his cultural roots. Going out to a party with his best-friend Luna, what was supposed to be a regular night turns into a journey of navigation, reflection and acceptance of his ethnic roots and cultural identity.The film is currently in it's final stages of post-production, but wanted to share it here and grab feedback from the lovely community of Sundance :)
