Isabelita sings her songs about the Japanese occupation to school boys in her town. The boys approached Isabelita after school - they wanted to know more about the grandmothers after searching them on Google, as no one had told them about their town's history. One of the boys, Jay, is a descendant of one of the grandmothers. Though curious about the history, the town often hushed conversations surrounding assault and trauma.
