The film concerns Regina Cadena (Cherie Gil), a former opera diva who fell into a deep funk following the loss of her voice and the subsequent collapse of her career. She returns to her family home, where she spends her days drinking and generally partaking in self-destructive behavior. Jonjon (Carlo Jalandoni), the son of her secretary, is staying over with his mother at the Cadena Hacienda. The precocious kid decides to try and be kind to the singer, and slowly, he helps bring back her smile.
