🎬"scalpel-sharp dissection of power relations" (The New Yorker)
⛳"the angle of a golf club can evoke suspense" (Vulture)

A sweltering pastel fairy tale of class and invisible violence unfolds on a Manila golf course, where 17-year-old Isabel's choreographed deadpan routine as a tee girl slowly cracks the club's pristine surface wide open. Rafael Manuel's meticulously composed debut turns the angle of a golf club into genuine suspense.
