I FELL IT’S FINE

I Fell, It’s Fine (2026)

Written & Directed by: Sigrid Andrea Bernardo

Hindi pakipot ang pelikulang ito pagdating sa pagpapa-kilig. Walang preno sa mga harutan at landian. Sa sobrang dami ng mga halikan, baka hindi mo na sila mabilang.

Fan service sa unang tingin. Ngunit kapag ibinunyag na ang totoong istorya, higit pa sa kilig ang kanilang naibigay. Hindi siya typical na romcom, at hindi rin siya isang ganap na sapphic love story.

Pabago-bago ang anyo nito. Hindi naka-kahon sa iisang formula. Ang puso ay hinahayaang kumawala. Ang isip ay hinahayaang makalipad. Malaya sa pakiramdam.

Malikot at makulit ang pagkakasulat. Simula pa lang ay may nangyayari na kaagad na rebelasyon. Naghahalo ang katotohanan at pangarap. Angkop ang OST sa kanilang kwento.

Minsan, dahil sa sobrang mapaglaro ng mga kaganapan, hindi agad napapansin ang ganda nito. Napupunta ang atensyon sa mga punchline at twists. Naiibsan ang posibleng bigat ng sitwasyon.

Komplikado ang usaping kasalan at hiwalayan, ngunit kaya nila ito gawing simple. Mabigat ang paksang mental health, ngunit mukha itong magaan at mabilis labanan.

Kahit mapaglaro ang mga eksena, nagagawan nila ng paraan upang makarating pa rin ang kanilang mensahe.

Given the whimsical nature of the story, it requires an actor who can meet its demands—and Glaiza de Castro fills the role with ease. Her emotions are fueled by fire. Rhian Ramos moves as smoothly as ice. She often acts like a child, yet it ironically works for her character. Together, these elements result in a refreshing pairing on the big screen.

Alchris Galura acts with passion and dedication. He has the potential to take on heavier roles. No phrase captures Ice Arago better than breaking the ice. When he appears on screen, you just know a joke is coming. He just needs to loosen up and be more relaxed to enhance his delivery.

Queenay Mercado can easily shed a tear and bring laughter. Her energy is on a Queen-level high. At times like this, you’re reminded of how cool and quirky Elizabeth Oropesa can be when given the right role to showcase it. She graces the film with her lively presence.

The supporting cast could have been used more to help the main character deal with pain, as she seems to be figuring things out on her own. Regardless, what matters is the ability to keep going.

The film’s unconventional take on the subject matter invites you to see things from a different perspective. Some lines and scenes come together in fragments, bringing memories anew. Endings pave the way for beginnings.

Falling in and out of love and life can be exhausting, but the film assures you it’s going to be fine.

You fall. You rise.

You’ll be fine.
