"Service," from acclaimed Filipino director Brillante Mendoza, is about the Pineda family, which lives in and operates a run-down movie house that shows dated sexy double-feature films. As they go about their daily lives, we get a glimpse of how the family suffers and deals with each other's sins. Preoccupied with their own personal demons, they are unaware that inside their movie theater another kind of business is going on between the "serbis" boys (male prostitutes) and the gay patrons.
