Plot

In the heart of Manila, Luz, an ambitious jeweler with dreams bigger than life itself, strives to lift her family to greater heights. Her world orbits around her trio of offspring - Oscar, Orson, and Orwell - and Gerry, her devoted live-in partner. With Maritess, her loyal friend and housemaid, Luz manages to create a semblance of normalcy despite the absence of a traditional paternal figure. Oscar, a rising star in the architectural world, is seemingly on the edge of domestic bliss with his long-term girlfriend Pauleen. However, unbeknownst to Luz and the world, Oscar harbors a secret love for his best friend and fellow engineer, Adrian Pengson. Oscar's inhibition stands in stark contrast to his brother Orson, who wears his homosexuality like a badge of honor, much to Oscar's chagrin. Orson, a vivacious spirit, dotes on his best friend Marky, constantly showering him with adoration in an attempt to win his heart. Finally, there's Orwell, the youngest, a silent observer grappling with his own sexual identity, his internal struggle hidden from his family. Despite the tangled threads of their sexualities, Luz's family presents an image of pure bliss, their home a sanctuary of laughter and unquestioning love. But when a crisis over stolen jewelry threatens to shatter their idyllic existence, Luz is plunged into a whirlpool of secrets and lies. Wishing to protect her children, she leans on Gerry to maintain the facade of normalcy and unity within their familial walls. As the storm calms, revelations emerge, forcing Luz to make a choice that will forever alter the course of her family's future.
