MACHO DANCER (1988) dir. Lino Brocka Abandoned by his American lover, young and handsome Pol journeys from the mountains to Manila in an effort to support his family. He enters the glittering world of male strippers, prostitution, drugs, sexual slavery, police corruption and murder. His closest friend Noel is a successful "macho dancer" and call boy, who takes Pol on as a roommate and acts as his mentor. Noel leads Pol to employment at Mama Charlie's, a male strip club in the district's tourist row frequented by American, European, and Japanese foreigners, and Pol is quickly accepted into the community of sex workers and has an immediate rapport with Bambi, a young call girl that often parties on the street with Noel and his friends after work hours.
