Synopsis

The film follows the lives of four Filipino migrant workers in Japan - Linda, Benjie, Manuel and Rodel - who, amidst their individual struggles, are suddenly caught together in an even more complex game of hide and seek where staying invisible is the only way to survive.

As threats of arrest and deportation looms closer and everyone's future becomes at stake, friendships are tested; loyalties are questioned; and values are eroded.
