A giant spaceship crashed from outer space onto the stormy coast of a small Filipino island. That’s how the signal rock looks like. Like an Alien civilization, it also brought advanced technology to the remote piece of land, since the rock entails the only capability for the islanders to get cellphone reception.
“Signal Rock” is screening at the Udine Far East Film Festival
For Intoy, the “everybody’s darling” main character, this place is the only connection to his sister Vicky, who went to her husband’s homeland – Finland. In hopes of a better life, she committed herself to a foreigner, got a baby girl and was able to send money back home to her family. But her relationship breaks apart and a child custody lawsuit is underway. Via the bumpy cell phone connection, Intoy and Vicky try to find ways of getting her and the baby back to the Philippines.
