Ode to Nothing

Middle-aged Sonya (Marietta "Pokwang" Subong) had little in her life beyond helping her elderly father (Joonee Gamboa) keep the doors open-barely-for the family funeral home. After the no-questions dumping of a Jane Doe corpse coincides with a turn in her fortunes, however, her decision to keep the body around as a talisman might have unwanted repercussions. Dwein Baltazar's oddly affecting study also stars Dido de la Paz, Anthony Falcon. 92 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Tagalog; Subtitles: English; featurette. In Tagalog with English subtitles.
