In an attempt to bridge the gaps between them for over 30 years, a queer Filipino filmmaker reconnects with his estranged father, a Christian pastor in Saudi Arabia.
Through its long history of colonization and corruption, Filipinos grow up thinking that the key to a bright future is to leave elsewhere, to fend for your family and in the hopes of a better life. JEREMY (29), a Filipino filmmaker from Davao, is a direct example of this phenomenon. As Jeremy struggles as an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) in Europe, he also embraces his queer identity. Meanwhile his father, NARCISO (61), has been working in Saudi Arabia for over 30 years, and currently serves as a protestant pastor, in a country where Christianity is hidden.
Through multiple and various jobs just to support his family, Narcisco is finally ready to retire soon, and calls upon his only child to visit him before he moves back to the Philippines for good.
Their estranged relationship has grown massively due to distance, religion, and politics. Narciso hasn’t seen Jeremy in so long, and doesn’t know Jeremy’s true identity and the way he expresses himself today—embracing his femininity as an androgynous, non-binary individual. After three long decades, the two generations of Overseas Filipino Workers face their differences and prepare to go home together to Davao city in this personal, whimsical, creative documentary film.
