Synopsis

To what is the poor born? The film depicts the underlying hostilities between life and landscape in the expanding international port of Manila. Four lives unfold in micro-narratives of birth, youth, adulthood and death, a chronic struggle in poor communities squeezed within the gaps and seams of the port's industrial spaces.
