About Because of a Flower
A humble provincial girl, Lily, ekes out a living selling flowers in bustling Manila when she musters the courage to present a single bloom to Miguel, a kind-hearted young architect. Their innocent romance blossoms amid family disapproval and the temptations of city life, but when a jealous rival schemes to tear them apart, Lily and Miguel must fight to protect the fragile beauty of their love “because of a flower.”
Directed by Luis Nepomuceno, Because of a Flower leans on a strong ensemble — Charito Solis, Ric Rodrigo, Paraluman — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1967.
