Netflix Philippines released the trailer for Alter Me which promises an unlikely romance sparked by a chance meeting. Directed by RC Delos Reyes and written by Danno Christoper Mariquit, the film follows HR manager Aimee (Jasmine Curtis-Smith) who seeks the mentorship of coveted escort Uno (Enchong Dee) to better connect with other people and her own emotions. However, Uno soon opens Aimee’s heart to unexpected feelings, altering their lives in the process.
“Nowadays, in the advent of technology and social media, we put on different masks and we create our own worlds. Hoping, that in that world we would be able to find the love and fulfillment we have always been seeking. Not realizing that the true change or ‘altering’ we have to do is always dependent on who we are and how honest we are to ourselves,” said director RC Delos Reyes.
“Now that cinemas are closed, it is a struggle for filmmakers like me to find a platform on where to tell our stories. So when my producers told me that my third film–Alter Me is now a Netflix Film that will be streaming across Asia, I was jumping out of joy. For that only goes to show that there is no way for us to stop telling our stories,” the director added.
Alter Me will premiere on November 15 on Netflix, and will be available across Asia. Catch your first look at the movie below!
