SYNOPSIS
When Claudia (Nora Aunor), a Filipina caregiver, moves her mother
Corazon (Gloria Sevilla) to the American care home where she works,
her mother feels hurt and unloved. Like many Filipinos, Corazon,
believes that placement in a care home is tantamount to rejection.
She feels that Claudia, a PhD in History professor in the
Philippines, favors her American husband over her. But Claudia has
her reasons. She is more concerned on seeing Corazon in a more
comfortable and secure home environment surrounded by other aging
residents. Life was not easy for Claudia. Because of her lazy
husband, Claudia had to take 2 jobs, as a caregiver and a house
cleaner. Corazon is initially very uncomfortable at the care home,
but she eventually adapts, striking friendships with her Filipino
caregivers, who also have their own struggles, and two other
Filipino residents, Delilah (Divina Valencia) and Elena (Rebecca).
Delilah was a bar girl from Olongapo estranged from her American
husband. Elena suffers from dementia and is often visited by her
loving grandson, Gilbert (Germaine De Leon Padilla). In spite of her
newly-found friendships, Corazon still refuses to forgive and
reconcile with Claudia. Eventually, mother and daughter come to a
critical crossroad in their relationship, and Corazon faces an
important decision for her future.
