The Fabulous Filipino Brothers (2021)
Set in Pittsburg, California, a working-class suburb of Oakland, this dark romantic comedy unfolds through four interconnected vignettes narrated by Arianna Basco. Written and starring the Basco brothers, including Derek, the narrative explores their misadventures. One brother heads to a cockfight seeking closure, while another returns to Manila to reignite a past romance. A third brother uncovers the sensual appeal of Filipino cuisine, and the last navigates personal trauma, discovering love in an unforeseen way. These intertwining stories culminate in a chaotic shotgun wedding at their family home.
