A unique movie experience can be had with Leonor Will Never Die. In every sense, writer-director Martika Ramirez Escobar has surpassed herself. It's strange in the greatest possible manner how much effort has gone into making this movie. This film does everything, and it does it really well. Sheila Francisco is a true gem, and the movie depends entirely on the strength of her natural lead performance. It would be an understatement to suggest that Leonor Will Never Die is making courageous decisions. The comedy is unexpected, the picture is stunning, and the script is unquestionably among the best of the year.

Although a well-known director, Leonor Reyes (Francisco) is well past her prime. Even while she continues to be recognised by complete strangers and well-known in her neighbourhood, she hasn't actually produced a script in a long time. Unfortunately, Leonor is causing a gulf between her and her son Rudy because she cares more about watching her old movies again than about paying her power bill (Bong Cabrera). Unbeknownst to Rudy, his mother has resumed her writing career at the urging of a former acquaintance. That friend is a ghost who appears as Ronwaldo, her deceased son. Nevertheless, Leonor has a fresh outlook and is back at her keyboard. She stands up and takes a smoke break after writing the climactic scene for her new novel, "The Return Of The Kwago." However, before Leonor can take her first drag, a tv set unexpectedly falls on her head, causing Leonor to awaken as a character in the world she's created.

The dramedy by Escobar is as rigorous as it is creative. When Leonor Will Never Die begins exploring its own subconscious, its magic is enhanced. The story of the low-budget action movie Leonor now calls home provides answers to how her kid died and what that stress caused to her family as she enters the realm of her own creation. Escobar has perfected an explanation style that viewers will find much easier to understand. One of the best scenes in the movie features Leonor interacting with a figure based on herself in addition to avatars for her family. The layers, however, continue on. When Rudy is reading from his mother's script in a scene, the movie abruptly cuts to another scene.

Leonor Will Never Die has absurd, inconsistent, and spot-on comedy. The movie covers a lot of ground, including a substantial subplot that takes place both in the medical facility where Leonor is being treated and on the news on a man who was impregnated by another man. For one scene at the same hospital, the movie unexpectedly switches to mockumentary mode and conducts interviews with everyone from physicians to ghosts. The relationship between the movie's protagonist and the protagonist who writes the scenes for her is, nevertheless, the running comedy of Leonor Will Never Die. At one point in "The Return Of The Kwago," a character freezes in mid-sentence when the typing halts and begs the screenwriter for guidance.
