Pink Halo-halo - Trailer

Natoy, like any other child, finds joy and excitement in the simplest of things -- especially in eating halo-halo filled with pink gelatin and red sago. Things change suddenly when, as he is watching television, a news report about the ongoing war in Mindanao shows footage of a badly wounded soldier waiting for rescue . That soldier -- almost bleeding to death, was his father, Corporal Lino Bolante.

This starts his journey as he and his mother, Sonia, wait for help that comes too late. As far away as the war, this story does not just show how the war in Mindanao robs a child of his innocence, but also shows the shadows of the wars that Filipino homes confront everyday.
