Nina (Hazel Ann Mendoza), who has been adopted by some relatives in Manila, shares to her younger sister Jasmine (Maja Salvador) how wonderful city life is. The young woman paints such a beautiful picture of her experiences in Manila that Jasmine could not help but long for the same thing. Coming from a financially-strapped family living in the province, nine-year-old Jasmine wished that she can be adopted by their well-off relatives too, so she can also have the comfortable life Nina is experiencing. It was too late however when she realizes that Nina merely embellished the story of her glorious city life. Worse, she was entrusted to a different set of relatives, who instead of taking care of her as their own flesh and blood, rapes her not once but several times. Can Jasmine ever escape this life of torture?
