The story follows the Lorenzos and the Ojedas, the two land-owning clans in the island province of Negros, who were trying to cope and survive the war that lasted three tumultuous years, where they experienced or witnessed violence, blood, horror, and death. It is structured into three parts: Oro, a life of luxury and comfort in the city; Plata, a still-luxurious time of refuge in a provincial hacienda; and finally, Mata, a toilsome retreat deeper into the mountains. A war not only turned them into miserable people but also turned them into animals.

This Filipino vampire film co-directed by Peque Gallaga and Lore Reyes tells the story of an aswang, the traditional shape-shifting creature of local legend. Here, the vampire makes appearances as a giant snake, a young woman (Alma Moreno), and a withered old hag (Lilia Cuntapay). The aswang has a lengthy cinematic history, having been the subject of the first sound film ever produced in the Philippines (1932's Ang Aswang) and migrating, in somewhat altered form, to films in Hong Kong, India, Japan, and, in 1994, to the United States. Aiza Seguerra co-stars with Janice de Belen, Aljon Jimenez, John Estrada, and Alma Moreno.

Shown in conjunction with the eponymous exhibit "Botong Francisco: A Nation Imagined" from December 2012 to March 2013, the documentary is designed and projected to be shown in large scale, together with the selected works, sketches and murals of Carlos "Botong" Francisco. Content-wise, the documentary is part first-person narrative of "Botong" Francisco's reflections (on his life, his work and his aesthetic views on the national imaginary), as well as part meta-referential tableau of the historical, mythical and fictional figures that features in Botong Francisco's works.

"Puso 3" is a digital trilogy: "Lost and Found", "Siklo" and "Kulam". "Lost and Found," is an off-beat, out-of-the-ordinary story about a unique journey and surreal realizations. It's a quirky comedy about missing persons, "accepting the bizaare and discovering the nature of the people close to you during stressful moments." "Siklo," on the other hand, is an inspiring tale of optimism. It tackles domestic violence, with the victim joining a support group whose leader the victim becomes close to, sharing her heartaches and desires with her. A striking twist will make the victim realize that her life need not end in despair, knowing that after each love lost, life goes on. "Kulam," is a mystic and intriguing story about love and black magic.
