Wiki.

T-Bird at Ako (lit. 'T-Bird and Me') is a 1982 Filipino neo noir crime drama film directed by Danny Zialcita starring two of the Philippines' most prolific actresses at the time Nora Aunor and Vilma Santos. Aunor also recorded the song "Hiwaga Ng Pag-ibig" featured in film.

The film depicts one of the earliest portrayals of LGBT themes in Philippine cinema during a time of heavier censorship and more conservative audiences. The word t-bird is a Filipino slang term for a butch lesbian. The screenplay was written by activist Portia Ilagan who is openly gay.

In 2015, 33 years after the film's original release, T-Bird at Ako was digitally restored and re-mastered as one of the 75 films restored by ABS-CBN Film Archives, in collaboration with Central Digital Labs.
