The documentary summons remembrances and memories of the fateful days in September 1974 when about 1,500 men from Malisbong and neighboring villages in Palimbang, Sultan Kudarat, were killed while 3,000 women and children were forcibly taken to naval boats stationed nearby, where they encountered unspeakable horror. For 40 years, the survivors lived in relative silence, and now, they tell their stories.
