The story, “which Mario O’Hara also wrote,” is set in idyllic small town Laguna on the eve of the Japanese occupation in World War II. Rosario (a radiant Nora Aunor in her early twenties) is an innocent barrio girl saying goodbye to her sweetheart Crispin (Bembol Roco) who is a soldier going off to war. Rosario and her family stubbornly refuse to flee their small town for the mountains, where many hid during the war.
