Mano Po 2: My Home

Sol is the long-suffering matriarch who fights to keep her blended family together and to protect Lean, navigating betrayal, court politics, and inheritance warfare. In the present, she collaborates with LuShui to uncover the truth behind Antonio’s death and the family’s disintegration. Her resilience and sense of justice anchor the drama as loyalties shift around the estate.

In the past, Sol is a native Filipina who bears Lean while dealing with Antonio’s infidelity and the early strains of a polygamous household. She faces hardship, separation, and the challenge of protecting her child within a complicated marital web. Her decisions then set the stage for decades of family tension.

Antonio is a wealthy businessman whose affairs produce Sol, LuShui, and Belinda as his wives, and whose children grow up under competing claims to his estate. His death becomes the catalyst for a sprawling inheritance fight that exposes greed, loyalty, and the fragility of family.

Lean is Antonio’s first-born son, raised within a provincial yet evolving family framework. He carries the burden of being the heir and the past’s unresolved tensions, but ultimately acts as a bridge during the funeral rites and family ceremonies. He seeks belonging and reconciliation with his father and siblings.

Janet is Sol’s daughter and Antonio’s wife in one of the branches; she endures hardship, including a devastating accident that leaves her paralyzed, while her husband’s family dynamics complicate her place in the estate.

Belinda is the Filipino-Chinese matriarch who seeks to dominate Antonio’s funeral and inheritance. Her scheming and control over the family’s wealth create fierce opposition from Sol, LuShui, and others. She represents ambition and power within the clan.

LuShui is the Chinese wife who is the mother of Rose and becomes central to the family’s alliances. She moves out for a time but later forms an uneasy friendship with Sol as both navigate the inheritance war.

Ingrid is Belinda’s daughter and Rose’s ally; her pregnancy adds pressure to an already tense inheritance storyline. She embodies the conflict between tradition and modern ambition within the family.

Rose is the daughter of LuShui and a figure in the inheritance drama who connects the Chinese-Filipino lineage to the newer generation. Her presence embodies the interplay of heritage and the fight for equality among siblings.

Erickson is the younger son shaped by his mother Belinda’s ambitions and by the family’s power struggles; his disapproval of Yna’s relationship intensifies the generational tensions.

Yna is Erickson’s partner, whose relationship becomes a point of contention amid Belinda’s warnings and the broader family conflict.

Grace acts as a sympathetic investigator who uncovers the truth behind the murder charges against Sol and helps expose the corruption that taints the funeral proceedings.

Johnson, Antonio’s brother, is married to Janet and becomes entangled in the murder framing scheme, contributing to the web of deceit surrounding the estate.
