Description by Wikipedia

Ang Lalaki sa Buhay ni Selya is a controversial 1998 Filipino drama film written by Bibeth Orteza and directed by her husband, Carlos Siguion-Reyna. The film stars Rosanna Roces, Ricky Davao, and Gardo Versoza. In the film, a woman confronts her own prejudice among the community of intolerant, bigoted, and homophobic gossipers when she chooses between two men: a high school principal who is a closeted gay man and a man who wants more commitment with her. This film is the second and last film of Rosanna Roces with Reyna Films and one of the films directed by Carlos Siguion-Reyna that features taboo topics in Philippine cinema.
