From the director of Ang Pagdadalaga ni Maximo Oliveros, Auraeus Solito, who himself is a Pisay alumnus!
Yes, we get that stereotypical misconceptions like we have thick glasses and talk about only intellectual garbage. This should be an eye-opener for the masses, for most of the Pisay alumni don't fit the description. From the looks of the trailer, this film was shot inside the Pisay campus! They also sport the authentic uniform for both boys and girls. I hope they will also show this here in the United States.

Amidst the chaos of Martial Law in this Third World country in the 1980s, eight teenagers in the top high school for the sciences discover themselves as they go through the joys and pains of adolescence. They were the top two hundred students from all over the Philippines who passed the examination for the Philippine Science High School, which was created for the purpose of giving an education highly enriched in the Sciences to exceptionally gifted Filipino children. Selected from the best and brightest from all over the country, they endure college-level courses in biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics from their sophomore year onwards. Those who can make it are hailed as the future science and technology leaders of the New Republic, those who don't are deemed unfortunate victims of natural selection. They all learn however that they are neither isolated from the real world, nor are they exempted from living real lives. They find the world outside, erupting into the People Power revolution in 1986 against the Marcos dictatorship, being replicated within the school as they struggle to graduate, contend with teachers, classmates, family, school officials, and a new classification to segregate students meeting the high standards of excellence from those who do not.
