In November 2013, a super typhoon ripped through and devastated the city of Tacloban in Leyte, Philippines. Shot in the aftermaths of this disaster, the film portraits the lives of the survivors and their deep scars.

People are left with helplessness, but they strive to live strong and to bring back their ordinary life.
