It all started during the sugar boom in 1960s Bacolod, a world where the difference between the rich and the poor is like the distance between heaven and earth and where sugar barons live in opulence while the sakadas suffered in squalor. In this world a forbidden friendship will bloom between the children of sakadas-- a plantation worker, Samuel, and a haciendera, Isabel. But in the end, their love, no matter how great, will not be enough. Will their true love triumph over time and circumstances?
