After the EDSA People Power Revolution, two unnamed male lovers meet in a particular room reminiscing about their lives after one of them was taken away by armed men during the Philippines’ Martial Law period. The disappeared talks of violence and life under captivity, while the other one talks of his life waiting and searching. The story unfolds towards their decisions on how they’d like to pursue their relationship given the circumstances, hopefully towards a more peaceful time together again.
