Leon Barretto is proud of the growth that his sister Julia Barretto and Joshua Garcia showed in their reunion film “Un/Happy For You,” while noting their “remarkable” acting prowess.

Leon said on Instagram on Monday, August 19, that the film explores the “crucial need for closure” and allows viewers to realize that understanding “both perspectives” in a relationship is a must.

“It reminds us to prioritize our own self-worth, recognizing that sometimes, letting go is the most loving thing we can do for someone else. To be genuinely happy for an ex, despite the pain, showcases a maturity and deep respect for what was once shared,” Leon added.

In the press conference for the film, Julia and Joshua reiterated that they’re on good terms, and wouldn’t accept the project if they’re not in a “stable place” in their lives.
