He begins communicating with a beautiful voice belonging to a mysterious woman. In their conversations, the two forge an unmistakable connection. They promise to meet each other in the nearby Lake Tabon.
However, as it will become painfully clear to both, they are not of the same time. While Marco lives in the present, the woman he has been talking to is actually Divina Buenacer (Iza Calzado), a woman who lived in the same house during the late 1950’s.
The two hold on to their love for each other, defying time and space. In their cross-period love affair, Marco slowly begins to unearth the buried stories, memories, and truths behind the ancestral house – truths that would lead him closer to the woman he loves but longs to meet. Source
