Description:
Ambet is a small-time pickpocket lurking in the busy streets of Manila. Together with his gang of young criminals, he steals anything he can. Ambet’s only family is his sister Luchie. She is afflicted with glaucoma, a disease which causes slow blindness of the eye. Ambet’s illegal income is not enough to sustain the two of them let alone treat Luchie’s illness. Then Marlon enters the picture. He is a cunning cameraman always chasing for video material on petty street crimes, prostitution, and prohibited drugs. His hidden camera is constantly on the hunt for juicy stories which he is peddles to the television network. As Luchie’s eye condition aggravates, Ambet agrees to work for Marlon as an “undercover agent”…
