Pare Ko (English: My Man) is a 1995 Philippine coming of age slice of life youth drama film written and directed by Jose Javier Reyes. The film's title is derived and inspired from the hit 1993 song of the same name by the alt-rock band Eraserheads. Starring Mark Anthony Fernandez, Jomari Yllana, Jao Mapa, Claudine Barretto, Gio Alvarez, Nikka Valencia, and Victor Neri, the film revolves around a group of teenage friends who are struggling in their own everyday lives like romance, family bonds, and treasured friendships. Supporting and special participation cast include Elizabeth Oropesa, Edgar Mortiz, Tessie Tomas, Gina Pareño, Ramil Rodriguez, Koko Trinidad, and Anita Linda.
Produced and distributed by Star Cinema, it was theatrically released on 11 January 1995 and it is the film studio's first offering for that year. The band Rivermaya, a newcomer in the music scene at that time, appeared in the film as the performing group in the nightclub.[1] At the 19th Gawad Urian Awards, the film earned ten nominations including Best Film, Best Director (Reyes), and Best Actor (Mapa and Yllana), winning one for Best Music (Antonio and Bulahan).[2]
In 2015, the film was digitally restored and remastered in high definition by ABS-CBN Film Restoration, in partnership with Central Digital Lab.
