Franklin Gamonal

Franklin Gamonal steps into the spotlight with “Our Times” (2025), a film that tosses you headfirst into the chaos and charm of modern life. The story doesn’t tiptoe around the ordinary—it grabs it by the collar and shakes out all the weirdness and wonder. The movie follows a group of friends coasting through the emotional minefield of their late twenties—job woes, love triangles, awkward family dinners, and just trying to pay rent on time. Nobody’s got it all together, and honestly, who does these days? The characters are as messy as your group chat at 2 a.m.—one’s chasing a creative dream that pays nothing, another’s stuck in a soul-crushing office job, and someone’s still hung up on an ex from five years ago (let’s be real, we’ve all been there). Franklin Gamonal brings a kind of raw, relatable energy to the mix. The dialogue snaps, the laughs feel unscripted, and when things get serious, it hits close to home—like, “oh wow, did they just read my mind?” kind of close. There’s no grand villain or superhero here, just people trying to figure it all out in a world that keeps moving faster than they can keep up. The city feels alive, almost like another character, with neon lights, late-night cafes, and subway rides that never quite go as planned. By the end, you’re rooting for these folks, flaws and all, because, honestly, it’s hard not to see a bit of yourself in their mess.
