ASOG is a surreal tragicomedy starring a cast of real life Super Typhoon survivors. The film follows Jaya on a road trip to a drag pageant and along the way they encounter Filipinos enduring the impacts of climate change. Flipping the conventions of the road movie on its head, Asog is a stunning and profound ode to the power of solidarity amidst struggle.
