“Nowadays, with the advent of technology and social media, we put on different masks and we create our own worlds. Hoping, that in that world we would be able to find the love and fulfillment we have always been seeking. Not realizing that the true change or ‘altering’ we have to do is always dependent on who we are and how honest we are to ourselves,” said Delos Reyes in a press statement.

“Now that cinemas are closed, it is a struggle for filmmakers like me to find a platform on where to tell our stories. So when my producers told me that my third film ‘Alter Me’ is now a Netflix Film that will be streaming across Asia, I was jumping out of joy. For that only goes to show that there is no way for us to stop telling our stories,” Delos Reyes said.
