Synopsis

Boy meets girl. But no, it’s not about that or the giddiness of a new romance. It’s about untimely death (no one’s sure of anything these days), true love, soul mates. It’s about the gun and the rose. Genre bending. Heart breaking. An avalanche of colors. Deadpan romance. Lips syncing, singing.

MUBI's take

Directed by Khavn, one of our favorite Filipino New Wave filmmakers, and shot by the great Christopher Doyle, Ruined Heart is a sincere mosaic of what feels like every emotion the filmmaker has encountered. A film of boundless energy and explosive color that you won’t be forgetting anytime soon!
