Ang Sayaw ng Dalawang Kaliwang Paa
(The Dance of Two Left Feet)
by Alvin B. Yapan
narrative feature, 2011, 84 minutes
Ang Sayaw ng Dalawang Kaliwang Paa uses
Filipino feminist poems on love, longing and loss
to tell the tale of an unconventional love triangle
between two college students, Marlon and
Dennis and their literature and dance professor,
Karen. As the two boys learn how to express
themselves through their bodies, one boy’s
feelings towards the other go seemingly
unrequited.
