Bekikang: Ang Nanay Kong Beki

This heartwarming and funny Filipino drama-comedy centers on Bekikang, also known as Beki, and his tight-knit group of friends as they explore the complexities of love, identity, and family. Inspired by the life of the late director Wenn Deramas, the film delves into themes of resilience and self-discovery.

Beki, a gay man who faced childhood bullying, learned self-defense from his father. Overcoming many challenges, he grew into a responsible, compassionate, and hardworking individual, deeply caring for his family. With his friends, he sells balut (fertilized duck eggs) on the streets to support his loved ones.

One day, Beki and his friends meet a handsome newcomer, Fortunato, who is being bullied. Beki steps in to protect him, sparking a connection between them. However, Fortunato soon develops feelings for Natalie, a charming waitress at a restaurant Beki frequents. As Fortunato and Natalie grow closer, Beki struggles with jealousy and his unspoken feelings for Fortunato.

When Natalie becomes pregnant and her relationship with Fortunato falls apart, Fortunato decides to leave the country for work. This leaves Beki to care for the child. Though initially hesitant, Beki eventually accepts the baby as his own after learning of Fortunato and Natalie's breakup.

Beki's family disapproves of his decision to raise a child who isn't biologically his, leading him to leave home and move in with his supportive friends. Together, the three gay men provide a stable and loving environment for the child, overcoming challenges along the way.

When Fortunato and Natalie return to reclaim their child, a custody battle ensues. With the couple reunited and intent on raising their child together, the future of the unconventional family Beki and his friends have built hangs in the balance. Will Beki and his friends manage to keep the child, or will Fortunato and Natalie's reunion tear them apart?
