Nanay Xedes runs her whorehouse with an iron fist and expects her employees to obey her rules — the most important of which is that her pimps and prostitutes can never be intimate with each other.
Ex-NBI agent seeks revenge for friend's death and attempts to rescue his love from a kidnapping syndicate leader responsible for both crimes.
Loosely based on the kidnapping of a broadcast journalist and her crew, the film shows a 10-year-old Tausug boy used by the Abu Sayyaf group to "charge" the cellphones they use in negotiating for their demands for the release of their captives. Things take a strange turn when the journalist befriends Shihab and earns his trust as Shihab finds himself torn between his loyalty to his Tausug brothers and the bond he has forged with his newfound friend.
