Verdict

Joy and her 6-year-old daughter Angel live in Manila with her husband Dante, a small-time criminal. As so often in the past, Dante comes home drunk at night and beats Joy brutally.

Joy learns that justice takes time at best and is impossible to get at worst. Not without reason, she feels that she and her daughter are increasingly under threat.
