Plot
After meeting during the 1980s at the first gay pride parade in Malate, the talkative Lianne (Kris Aquino) and the colorfully gay Osmond (Eric Quizon) become fast friends. Over the next 30 years, the two do everything together... dining, shopping, discussing life, and even looking for the perfect man. The two became so inseparable, that even their mothers had become best friends as well. The Lianne and Osmond friendship lasts for decades, even beyond Lianne's becoming a mother to two teenage daughters and until Osmond's death.
