In the midst of uncertainty, there's no other passion that can pull us back to freedom but the burning fire that hides within each of us.
A musical-drama film about the struggles of common people who became victims of Martial Law in the '70s. Based on the 2016 musical play of the same name, Katips is a tale of the young, in their fight for their ideals, how big can one get against a force too much bigger than yourself.
