The grand gestures, intense stares, heart-pounding moments, and, of course, the kiss. These are some of the many elements that make an endearing romance film.

And if there’s one thing we Filipinos should know about, it is that our local rom-com features never fail to bring all the feels.
This year, make your Hearts Month a love affair with local movies. Stay safe, snuggle in, order good food, and swoon over these Filipino romantic flicks available on Netflix.
