About Huwebes Huwebes:

Three men. Three stories. Noel, a fisherman battling with his curiosity, commits a grave mistake and ends up paying the price. Xander, a man assigned to track down an evasive drug pusher, finds the man’s blind daughter who is longing for her island hometown instead. Emman, a stranger seeking refuge in a seaside village, is befriended by a local who asks for his help but finds that there is more to the boy than what meets the eye. Huwebes Huwebes is a triptych of stories that embraces the sea, depicting different lives, all battling one war.
