With tons of symbols and signs to take into consideration, as well as some eerie stuff in between, Kalayaan is a very deep film that will confuse regular film buffs. However, fans of films with unconventional themes (and indie films in general) will surely feel at home watching this.
The story (as far as I can remember) is about Julian Macaraig, a soldier who was stationed in the titular Kalayaan group of islands for a long time where he spends the rest of his time venturing the island while also doing... "other stuff". Things get weirder from there, however, as he starting to see some stuff that wasn't meant to be real. Is it a product of his isolation to society? Or something else?
I am not going to give out too much about the film, but rest assured that Kalayaan is a film that you would like to watch... for as long as you have the guts to dwell in to the more eerie stuff as you watch it further.
