ENG:

Manila, 1979. A disillusioned police aide, Dahlia, breaks into the mansion of the corrupt police chief Bernal and steals the money from his safe. She unloads the money to slum dwellers whose settlement Bernal razed down. Bernal unwittingly assigns Dahlia, who happens to be a trusted confidante, to investigate alongside his nephew Charlie, an ex-cop and Dahlia’s ex-lover. Their reunion dredges up memories of their younger, more idealistic selves that the dictatorial regime will ravage over the years. Eventually, Charlie realizes it was Dahlia who instigated the theft. As Bernal pursues them, the two flee until Charlie learns the devastating truth behind Dahlia’s heist.


Moonglow is Sandoval's latest feature film after Lingua Franca (2019).
