Three unrelated but intertwining stories of characters --all
seemingly living dead-- unfold in this anthology of lives of
have-nots who have become commodities that are either for sale
or for hire.
Gloria (Gloria Romero), caretaker of a rich family's
mausoleum, has a simple wish: to be buried beside the tomb of
her husband Donato who has long been dead.
Etang (Lui Manansala)
the mistress of Gloria's husband continues making life miserable
for Gloria.
Dadeng (German Moreno), Gloria's gay neighbor
who sells flowers for the dead in funeral parlor, is burdened
by the child (of a dead love-of-his-life) now a teen gay Byuti
(Kirby de Jesus), an incurable romantic who is head-over-heels
in love with Topher (Joseph Bitangcol), later revealed to be
a closet "gay".
Estrella Kerubin or Star is Krista Ranillo,
a trying-hard who has not stopped dreaming, believing and surviving
in a dying showbiz. She'd do anything for her ambition. She even
uses her body including to a caretaker (Mon Confiado) who claims
connections with the production staff.
Snooky Serna plays
the role of Lucinda, mother of Star, whom Star blames for the
death of her father.
Lucinda is a broker of kidneys and other
vital parts for a fee. While Allen Dizon is Tonio Torres, a male
starlet-member of an all-male group called Wild Boys.
Jay
Manalo is Roberto San Pedro an ex-convict who gets paroled by
a powerful armed group who uses him as an assassin.
Angelu
de Leon plays the role of Angela, wife of Roberto, a former public
school teacher who lost her job after cracking due to extreme
pressure.
Almost all of the above stories are resolved.
Others
are open-ended coz that's a reality.
Being treated as a commodity
is a hurting truth we have to live by.
Directed by Joven Tan.
