Interesting facts

My Father, Myself is a 2022 Philippine drama film directed by Joel Lamangan and starring Dimples Romana, Sean de Guzman and Jake Cuenca.

Production

Described as a "boy's love" (BL) film, My Father, Myself was produced under Mentorque Entertainment and 3:16 Media Network. It has Joel Lamangan as its director and Quinn Carrillo as its writer. Lamangan is also the director of two other LGBT-related films, Rainbow's Sunset and Isa Pang Bahaghari. Principal photography began in July 2022.

On concerns raised that the film might have a negative impact on the LGBT+ community following the release of the trailer, Lamangan address this by saying that he based the film on a real story that happened in his province, adding that not all gay stories should be positive or else that would be "unrealistic" or "romanticism". He had to change the ending, since the story he based the film on was "tragic".
