Mira, the daughter of a mussel farmer who needs to fight a reclamation project. She would do everything to save their livelihood even if it means sacrificing her innocence.
Power dynamics is present among the characters, and some of them are not depicted well. Nag-mukhang hero pa yung isang karakter kahit namantala siya ng tao at ng sitwasyon. (0.8/5)
”The story aimed to have social and environmental significance [...]. However, these political issues just fell on the wayside when the narrative took a sharp turn and became of story of exploitation and rape. (3/10)
”Tahong also portrays exploitation in a pseudo-feminist sense, in that there is no benefit to rely on men, and it is only through solidarity with fellow women that men's exploitation of women can be avoided. This is a trope common in Vivamax films, and considering it's in erotica catered to straight men, I have doubts to its 'sincerity'. (1.5/5)
