The story of Relaks, It's Just Pag-Ibig revolves around a 16-year-old girl named Sari (Sofia Andres) who picked up a love letter written by a certain man named Elias, dedicated to a woman named Salome. Sari wanted to meet the two under the blue moon in a beach in Leyte. She dragged Josh (Iñigo Pascual), a non-believer in love, in her journey, and also her best friend Kiko (Julian Estrada), who is secretly in love with Sari.
The film was considered a moderate success, considering that the three main leads of the film were not relatively known to audiences, especially Iñigo Pascual. The film ultimately earned ₱4,954,361 ($110,562) at the box-office.
