In a world that seems to have no place for their love, will their love find a
way to build a world only for them?
Romer, a seaman on vacation, is on a road trip with his family. Their itinerary is
disrupted when an ill friend from their hometown of Olvida calls and Romer’s
mother insists on visiting her. Romer is reluctant but he cannot say no to his
mother. He agrees with the condition that it’s going to be just a brief visit.
As they drive along the streets of Olvida, Romer sees that their hometown has
not changed a bit since they left 10 years ago. Ten years that transformed him
into the man that he is now – well-travelled, capable and confident. But the
longer he stays, the more he realizes that those 10 years are not enough to
totally free himself from this town. He has to hurry up and get out quickly.
Before Romer could leave, the government declares a nationwide lockdown
due to the pandemic. Unable to go back home to Manila, Romer and family look
for a place to stay indefinitely. The only place that can accommodate them is
the lone hotel in town, Hotel Olvida, where he used to work as a young boy,
and which is owned by the family of his former girlfriend, Reina.
The encounters between Romer and Reina are ugly at first as they are
reminded of their young romance that ended bitterly. They soon agree to stay
away from each other’s paths. But in a small town like Olvida, it is not easy to
avoid someone even during a community quarantine.
Romer and Reina soon realize that their feelings for each other haven’t
changed, but so have the barriers that made their love unattainable the first
time, and which drove Romer away from Olvida in the first place. It’s the past
coming back, only more complicated.
Romer and Reina will free themselves from the past and fight for their love.
