In the impoverished barangay Kinaiya, an 8-year-old boy grows attached to a deflated sex doll that he found in a trash heap. He names it ‘Manika,’ and even though several men try to take Manika away from him, the boy clings to the doll as if it were his only friend.
Na mahirap na barangay Kinaiya, ang isang 8-year-old na bata na napalapit sa isang deflated na sex doll na nahanap niya sa basura. Pinangalanan niya itong ‘Manika,’ at kahit na sinubukan ng ilang tao na kunin ito sa kanya, kumapit ang bata dito na parang ito lang ang kanyang nag-iisang kaibigan.
