Four students live in an urban community, where, in principle, everything can be discussed, divided, shared: each one's allowance, personal objects, relationships, political commitments. But things start to change with the arrival of a fifth resident, older and disillusioned, who puts in check the capacity of each one to live according to their ideas.

Nick Deocampo looks into the life of Filipino visual artist Victorio C. Edades. Recognized as the father of Philippine modernism, Edades is known for his formative influence among local artists with strong modernist leanings. In 1976, Edades was conferred National Artist for Visual Arts for his contributions to the development of Philippine art.
