Production
Dreamboi was directed by Rodina Singh, who is a trans woman herself.[7][3] The film was centered around the "undressing" and sexual desires of trans women. While the film included elements of transphobia, Singh was careful to avoid "exploiting trauma" and believed in the principle of being able to make a film that she could watch with cisgender people.[3] The film had a budget of ₱2 million.[7] The film was produced for the queer demographic rather than the cisgender male demographic VMX primarily caters to.[3]
