The 1980s was a prominent era for Filipino "bold" movies—commercial films with significant erotic components

Ishmael Bernal’s Working Girls is less of a "bold" film in the traditional sense and more of a sharp, sexy social satire. It follows the intersecting lives of women navigating the corporate world of Makati. While it features the era's trademark sensuality, it is praised for its feminist undertones and its witty, realistic portrayal of the modern Filipina’s struggles and desires. 5. Hubad na Gubat (1980)
