Trailer:
Synopsis: Natoy, like any other child, finds joy and excitement in the simplest of things, especially eating halo-halo filled with pink gelatin and red sago. Things change suddenly when, as he is watching television, a news report about the ongoing war in Mindanao shows footage of a badly wounded soldier waiting for rescue . That soldier almost bleeding to death is his father, Corporal Lino Bolante.
That report starts his journey as he and his mother Sonia wait for help that comes too late. As far away as the war, this story does not just show how the war in Mindanao robs a child of his innocence, but also shows the shadows of the wars that Filipino homes confront everyday.
Cast: Allen Dizon, Angeli Bayani, Dexter Doria, Mark Fabillar, Introducing Paolo Constantino. Also starring Yda Yanez, May-i Fabros, Sebastian Balde, Tatoy delos Santos and Erwin Rivera.
