Viva Films releases an intriguing movie about online dating called Swipe.
The film asks the question: How good or bad is it to trust the internet when connecting with a prospective partner?
“Swipe right on the pic if you like, swipe left if you don’t.” And there goes the basic rule of social media dating.
In midrise Sunrise Apartments, the intertwining lives of its tenants are brought together by this rule.
When a CCTV system is installed in Sunrise apartments, the cameras start to record their public activities as the tenant’s private lives begin to unravel.
Loida (Mercedes Cabral), the condo’s new lady guard is harassed by Leo (Luis Alandy), the building supervisor who hired her.
He tries to rekindle their affair as she copes with the return of her estranged OFW husband.
Unable to face rejection, he blackmails her by threatening to expose their recorded illicit act online.
Gloria (Isabel Lopez), whose marriage has recently been annulled, gets another shot at romance with her online chatmate, Ted, an investment consultant. Her young son, Jiggy (Neil Coleta), is oblivious to her romantic affair as he is more preoccupied with his online networking business.
Frank (Gabby Eigenmann), a married executive who’s actively engaging in gay social dating sites, gets his cellphone stolen by one of the guys he meets online.
“SWIPE” is now showing in cinemas.
