Four Filipino migrants in Japan—Linda, Benjie, Manuel, and Rodel—struggle and strive for a better life, bridging the gap between sacrifice and hope for their families back home.

When an old manananggal (self-segmenting flying beast) mother suffered from a stroke mid-air, her eldest daughter, Chandra, must reunite her estranged aswang (werebeast) siblings and recover her mother’s missing lower half before the fuchsia moon rises—a rare occurrence that happens once every 50 years and the only night their dying mother can pass on an ancient ritual that promises to free them from their aswang curse and make them fully human.

At a wake, a persevering high school student must prove that he is the 82nd child of the Philippines’ biggest action-fantasy movie star in the hopes of seeing his late father one last time.

The film follows the story a man who travels to Saga to expand his pottery business in the Philippines, then falls in love with a Japanese woman who is the heiress of a flourishing pottery factory.
