Cast

Production

Unravel was directed by RC de los Reyes under Mavx Productions and was filmed in Switzerland.[2][3][4] "Swiss Side" in the film's name is a word play on the concept of suicide, a concept which the film heavily tackles. The film tackles the role of "human connection" in relation to suicide, or more specifically assisted voluntary death (ADV), a process which is legal in Switzerland.[4] It also tackles anxiety and depression.[2]

Release

Unravel screened in cinemas in the Philippines as one of the eight official entries of the 2023 Metro Manila Summer Film Festival which began on April 8, 2023.[5]
