Taking a break from holiday movies, Un/Happy For You, a Filipino Netflix Original, tells the story of an ex-couple who run into each other under extraordinary circumstances and discuss their relationship and eventual breakup. Un/Happy For You is an ideal mix of 500 Days of Summer, the Hollywood cult film, and the recently released Tamil film Lover, which was about toxic relationships and breakups.
