Out 1: Noli Me Tangere (1971)

Two marginals who don’t know one another stumble into the remnants of a “secret society”: Colin, a seemingly deaf-mute who all of a sudden begins to talk and Frederique, a con artist working the “short con” (stealing drinks and tricking men who think she’s a hooker out of their money).
