Graduation Day

Directed by Dante Balboa

Lola Nelia, a seamstress, raises her grandchildren - Paolo, Somon and Teresa (who is a child with special needs) - after the early death of their parents. Tragically, Paolo dies in an accident, leaving only Nelia and Simon, a working student, to support their struggling family. As Simon nears graduation as a cum laude scholar, they are filled with hope.
