Synopsis

Once a rising sensation in the local music industry, the Sinagtala Band—A Symphony of Broken Souls—was more than simply a band; it was a dream, a promise, and a family. In the midst of their chaotic circumstances, their music served as a ray of hope and the soundtrack to their youth. However, as the years went by, reality eroded their hopes, dividing them into disparate battles, and leaving only remnants of their former selves. Even though they were broken, their relationship was never really broken. Every member bears the burden of the past, with their spoken regrets creating unseen bonds that prevent them from moving on. Paola, the leader who persisted in playing the song despite death itself, was at the center of it all.
