Two people in one car. Simon, a promising young cop, working part-time as a driver of one of the many undocumented and illegal FX taxis called "colorum" in Metro Manila, and Pedro, a 70-year-old ex-convict, are forced together by an unfortunate incident. They embark on a road trip across the historic Philippine east coast. However, what was expected as an escape route doomed to be a domino of crime begetting crime, becomes a wagon of full life choices to them and to the people they meet. The film takes a look at the paradox of human condition, and the "greyscale" morality of today’s Philippines.
