Question of Love or Libog presented by Cinema Sala
Cinema Sala has curated 4 short films that share the spectrum of what we human beings do for pag-ibig o libog ("love or lust"). These are all written and directed by Filipinx filmmakers who graduated from the film programs at Columbia University and NYU Tisch School of the Arts. As we celebrate the beauty of peoples and cultures, we also proudly present Ella Jay Basco's GOLD feat. Ruby Ibarra. Click here to watch.

As an immigrant community hustles to keep afloat during the 2008 recession, a lonely clerk is forced to consider a lucrative “green card marriage”. But when an undocumented immigrant he secretly loves finds herself in dire financial need, he sacrifices even his own happiness for her sake.
