Set in the Philippines in 1902, Sisa unfolds in a nation left raw and wounded after the Philippine-American War. The land remains occupied, violence lingers in silence, and grief hangs heavily in the air. Widows fill the villages, and mothers disappear into quiet suffering. Among them walks Sisa, portrayed by the legendary Hilda Koronel — barefoot, broken, and dismissed as mad by a society that fears what it cannot understand. Yet beneath that perceived madness lies something far deeper: a woman carrying a secret and a quiet resolve for revenge.
