Plot

Dr. Joseph Dumalilon (Raymart) returns to his hometown in Ifugao, along with his girlfriend Nancy (Rachel), to attend the funeral of his father Apo Ginoldang (Ray), a tribal healer and leader who was killed in a tribal conflict, and to treat patients in an ongoing cholera epidemic, during which he makes friends with Felix (Joel), the community doctor. However, his fellow tribespeople demand that he avenge his father's death by killing members of the tribe that killed his father, something that he refuses to do because of his duty to the Hippocratic Oath and his willingness to treat members of the enemy tribe headed by Ramon (Pen).[4]
