The Black Nazarene procession in the Quiapo neighborhood of Manila is one of the most important religious events in the country. A curious postmodern and vibrant mixture, from out of the syncretism of past and present Philippine cultures (Malaya, Spanish, North American, and different indigenous cultures). The film brings together the views, customs, anecdotes, feelings, and devotions marked by the frantic passionate rhythm of this celebration.
