The Panti Sisters is a 2019 Filipino comedy-drama movie directed by Jun Robles Lana. It stars Paolo Ballesteros, Martin del Rosario, and Christian Bables as the three gay sons of an affluent businessman, played by Eddie Garcia. The movie tells the story of how the three brothers try to win their father's inheritance by pretending to be straight and getting married.

The story begins with Don Emilio, the patriarch of the Panti family, summoning his three sons to his deathbed. He presents them with a challenge; his entire wealth will be left to the grandson of the first son who provides him with a grandchild. The catch is that the son has to be married and straight. Don Emilio disowns his sons the moment they come out to him as gay, believing that they will never be able to give him the grandchild he desires.

The Panti brothers are devastated but are also determined to get their hands on their father's wealth. They hatch a plan to pretend to be straight, get married, and have children. They hope that their father will eventually accept them and give them their rightful share of the inheritance.

The eldest brother, Gabriel (Paolo Ballesteros), is a successful businessman engaged to his long-time boyfriend, who agrees to help him with his plan. Second brother Daniel (Christian Bables) is a struggling musician, who gets the surprise of his life when his high school crush, Norma (Mara Lopez), appears in his life as his fiancée. The youngest brother Sam (Martin del Rosario) is a flamboyant fashion designer who convinces his best friend, the straight-laced Sally (Roxanne Barcelo), to pretend to be his wife.

The movie is a hilarious and heartwarming journey of the three brothers as they navigate their way through the challenges of being straight and married. Gabriel, the most level-headed of the three, initially struggles with his decision to deceive his partner. As the main breadwinner of the family, he also finds it challenging to juggle his business and the demands of a fake marriage. Daniel, who has been pining for his straight crush for almost two decades, finds that being in a fake relationship with a woman has its advantages. Sam, the most flamboyant of the three, finds it especially difficult to tone down his personality and try to fit in as a straight man.

As the three brothers navigate their fake relationships and try to convince their father that they are straight, they encounter several obstacles along the way. The arrival of Norma's estranged daughter puts Daniel's fake marriage to the test, while Gabriel's partner begins to suspect that something is not right. Sam, on the other hand, has to contend with the fact that Sally might be falling for him.

The movie's climax is a heartwarming culmination of the three brothers' journey, bringing to light the true meaning of family, acceptance, and love.
