As she prepares the special day of Isay, unfortunately someone gets invited to the party that triggers her dark past. Her goal is not just to give Isay a memorable birthday party but to also protect her from their sinister visitor.

 

“I wrote this story to dedicate to my younger cousins. It inspired me because of our conversation about how to protect themselves, and I noticed how innocent they are and how little knowledge they have when it comes to building healthy boundaries and knowledge on how to protect themselves, and I hope this movie will foster a safe environment for young people and broaden people's perspectives.” -Ms. Jewel Grecia, writer and director from Far Eastern University-Manila.
