The Eraserheads remain the most important Filipino band of the past half-century. Despite their untimely dissolution in 2001, they have stayed part of the cultural zeitgeist. When they returned for the record- breaking reunion show Huling El Bimbo in 2022, a polarized nation united for at least one night. Part-procedural of a mammoth production and dissection of a relationship that is as celebrated as the music it yielded, this film is an unmissable testament to artistry and what it means to be human.

Buendia—who once famously declared that they were never really friends—offers a quiet retraction: "We were never not friends. We just had a falling out." It’s not exactly a grand reconciliation, but it’s something. Take that, Glenn Frey.
