UNREST
Manila, Philippines, 1986.
The People Power Revolution is boiling over, the streets are turning to chaos,
and inside her home, a little girl finds her own family torn apart by the crisis.
Surrounded by the terror and excitement of a city in turmoil, she must do everything
in her power to hold her loved ones together, before all is lost.
Set against the backdrop of revolution, “Unrest” tells the story
of a child who must navigate a world turned upside down and the rising tensions
of those closest to her. All she wants is for her family to remain together,
but is that too much to ask?
