Shirley (Vilma Santos) is a woman who wants to be in control of everything. But in her family, her unwarranted intervention in her children’s lives and families keeps her emotionally detached from them. Realizing that she has lost the command she once had, she goes to New York to reunite with Mark (Luis Manzano), her estranged gay son. But Shirley doesn’t know that he is living with his partner Noli (John Lloyd Cruz), an illegal immigrant. Noel tries his best to endure Shirley’s degrading behavior towards him while maintaining his relationship with Mark. Shirley must now not only face the challenges of living abroad but must also learn to gradually open up her heart to attain happiness.
