It follows the three corners of a post‑Marcos political triangle – the legal left, the armed insurgency and the reactionary right that opposes both. Set in 1987, after Ferdinand Marcos’ ouster, newly elected President Corazon Aquino battles a military still loyal to the old regime. The film asks whether the Filipino People’s Movement should stay in guerrilla war or enter legal politics, exposing the hidden face of the revolution.
