Synopsis
[edit | edit source]Set in the 1980s, the film tells the story of Fidela (Elizabeth Oropesa), a 65-year-old retired teacher who develops a special bond with a young Japanese photojournalist Kenji (Vin Abrenica), who has an uncanny resemblance to her lost love named Nestor (also played by Vin Abrenica). Nestor, who was about to marry Fidela in the 1940s, went off to fight in the war (World War II) and was killed.
Decades later, Fidela met Kenji who was covering the EDSA revolution in 1986 in Baler. She reminisced about her past as Kenji woos a local beauty named Rory (played by Ellen Adarna). Fidela helped Kenji surpass the challenges given to him by Rory to prove his sincere feelings towards her.[9]
