When Mila announces to her father that she is pregnant, he begins a sordid game to reassert control over his kin. Mike De Leon's Martial Law-era masterpiece: an unflinching portrait of the horrors of authoritarianism and patriarchy.

A laced cassette tape sets off the Yakuza, the Filipino-Chinese Triad, and a convent of fake nuns. Mike De Leon at his most outlandish, comedic and biting.
