Ever been to Colma? It's that little town right next to San Francisco. It's just like any other sleepy town that rests in the shadow of a huge city. Best pals Rodel, Billy, and Maribel live in Colma and they love it! (not really). After graduating from high school they find themselves in a state of limbo. Like most kids, they are on the brink of self-discovery, but aren't in a rush. They are having too much fun doing nothing or crashing college parties. But when newfound revelations and romances challenge their relationships, the trio must assess what to hold onto, and how to best follow their dreams. Oh, there's one more thing - they sing. Colma boasts 13 musical numbers featuring all original music by H.P. Mendoza. USA, 2006, 100 min.

Colma has been awarded the Special Jury Prize at the San Francisco Asian American Film Festival and Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival. It was honored with nominations for the Gotham Award (Best Film Not in a Theater Near You) and the Independent Spirit Award (Someone To Watch).
