She finds herself torn between campus athlete/swimmer <strong>LA</strong> (Dustin) and student council president/academic achiever <strong>Vic</strong> (Will). New ships ultimately sail: are you team SaVic or team LaVan?</p><p>Dustin noted that their movie focuses on a relatable young love. &quot;<em>Kasi lahat naman tayo pinagdaanan natin &#x27;yan</em>. <em>Lahat tayo nagmahal na</em>, for sure, at some point,&quot; he said. But Will also emphasized that it captures another form of love: self-love. &quot;<em>Hindi lang siya kuwento ng pagmamahal sa isang ta</em><em>o</em>. <em>Kuwento rin ito ng isang tao na hinahanap &#x27;yung sarili kung saan ba pupunta &#x27;yung buhay niya.&quot;</em></p><div><em></em><strong>Ahead of the movie&#x27;s premiere, we sat down with Dustin, Bianca, and Will to learn more about their movie and get to know them a little better through the things they love so badly.
