Will Lies, Politics and Corruption ever go hand in hand with Truth? Confessional is a story of Ryan Pastor, a small time filmmaker who got tired of all the lies and manipulations not only on his work, splicing and editing footages to come up with a story that may not always be truthful, to life in general as one handle relationships and lives in society.
To get out of it all, even for a while, he traveled to Cebu with his girlfriend to join a video contest of the province’s famous festival, the Sinulog.
Unexpectedly, Ryan stumbles upon a politician who chose him, even if it was against his will, to tell the politician’s story, a former mayor in an unnamed town in Mindanao who believes that his days are numbered. What better way to leave a legacy than to tell the truth and come clean? Is he a criminal mending his ways? Is he honest? Is this, at last, the truth that Ryan has been searching for? In the end, sometimes, the truth is just too tough to handle.
Confessional is the two directors’ first foray into full feature film making but is not their first in the industry as both are accomplished filmmakers and scorers (Jerrold Tarog). The movie, part of the Cinema One Originals 2007 garnered a record seven awards including Best Picture and Best Directors.
