L'histoire débute en 1997, quand Horacia Somorostro (Charo Santos-Concio) est libérée de prison après avoir été condamnée pour un crime qu'elle n'a pas commis. Elle retrouve sa fille et apprend que son mari est décédé et son fils a disparu pendant son emprisonnement. En revanche, la situation sociale n'a pas changé : les élites ont toujours le pouvoir, comme le démontre la position toujours forte de Rodrigo Trinidad, son ancien amant qui l'a fait tombée dans un coup monté. Les gens riches, comme Rodrigo, sont visés par des kidnappings en série et sont forcés de se cloîtrer dans leurs maisons. Profitant de la crise, Horacia commence à mettre sur pied sa vengeance.

Une fresque cinématographique en 3 parties sur la révolution philippine contre le régime colonial espagnol à la fin du 19ème siècle. Isagani, étudiant naïf, brillant et poète, se laisse influencer par le ténébreux Simoun, un radical qui prône la violence au nom de la libération. Représentant les tendances les plus sombres et destructrices de l’insurrection dans les milieux urbains et aristocrates, Simoun opère cependant un virement après une blessure presque fatale.
