A typical story of a hopeless Filipino worker whose last resort is to work abroad to save his family from poverty. Melo trudged the desert to look for greener pasture but it seems like it is too far and hard to reach. His family in the Philippines was left in a maze, with each of them trying to find their way out. On his homecoming, which welcome will hurt him most: his torn pocket or his broken home and heart?
