Paupahan (2023) revolves around Nico Catapang (Jiad Arroyo), a promising model. He has been attending auditions but hasn’t secured any gigs. To save money, he rents a room in the house of Analyn Salvacion (Tiffany Grey), a gloomy young woman who takes care of her paralyzed grandmother Esther (Odette Khan). Analyn falls for Nico and goes beyond her duties as a landlord, willing to do extra chores for him.
However, Nico is promiscuous, bringing different women home every night, and Analyn voyeuristically watches his intimate encounters through a one-way mirror. One day, Nico’s fiancée Katherine (Robb Guinto), who works as a nurse in Canada, comes back home and moves in with him in his rented room. When Analyn realizes just how much of a trickster Nico has been and how he’s been taking advantage of her, she becomes furious. For fans of Vivamax films, this is definitely a choice worth considering.
