[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

It's December 1941, and the simple folk of the quiet town of San Nicolas are unaware that war is nearly upon them. Inya (Judy Ann Santos) is a lovely young lady who has just married her childhood sweetheart Edilberto (Raymart Santiago) and they're excited about starting a new family, Igancio (Dennis Trillo) is Inya's bestfriend, a gay man who has been in love with the handsome Edilberto for years.

The arrival of the Japanese throws the town in Chaos.

But Edilberto, Inya and Ignacio aren't the only ones the war will change forever. Traitorous Japanese interpreter Maura (Angelu de Leon), strong-willed Tiyang Mabel (Jaclyn Jose), tough guy Anton (TJ Trinidad), and pure hearted Juliana (Iya Villania) also get caught in the winds of the war, and find themselves doing things they never thought they'd do... all for the hope of living and dying another day.
