Nora (Ces Quesada), the landlady of the apartment, asks Bong (Jojit Lorenzo) to investigate the affair after the police ignores the incident. Bong comes to know each tenant whose occupation, race and age are all diverse. Bong develops a friendship with Apple (Diana Malahay), one of a mysterious group of women who lives on the first floor. Nora herself is having a pained relationship with her husband (Mark Gil), and Bong with his wife Lisa (Katherine Luna). There is a tottering old man, Mr. Chiu (Dante Balois), and colorful brothers MD (Archie Alemania) and Raven (Alchris Galura). |
