Sergio is determined to get Eddie back but with no money and no real home -- they live in a Manila cemetery mausoleam -- what are his chances? His only source of income is his dogs, who he has trained to do tricks in the streets of Manila. His other children, Alvin and Celia, do what they can to help but it’s Sergio himself who must take the initiative. He learns that his wife works in the country. He’ll track her down...
