Iris (2025)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Set in the 1960s, where Caloocan stands at the cusp of transformation, there’s a story of an ordinary Filipino family who faces their own reckoning with change, the Asuncion family. Iris, the middle child, returns home after receiving news of his mother’s death, stepping back into a home—and a city—that feels both familiar and distant.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
