With the help of a NGO worker named Julia, he quickly learns that his parents are from “Smokey Mountain”, a slum of Manila, and that he has a living brother there. But the brother is a transvestite and the slums a totally alien world for Lucky, where four-years old children work at recycling garbage and the fumes coming from the defuse are toxic. <76mn 15s>Language:English / TagalogNotes:Genre:DRAMADetailed holdings information: -
