Ang Sandaling Sadya Nina Lire at Isa

Lire and Isa's Unforgettable Encounter

Lire is on a special delivery errand for his father. Isa, meanwhile, is armed with a grocery list and a message. Their paths cross on the way to the barrio. In any other place, it would be a normal afternoon where children meet, share songs and toys and stories, maybe even take a liking to each other. But it is Christmastime in the Philippine countryside, amidst a long-standing guerilla war. Here, boys and girls have no choice but to grow up fast, because in a place like this, even kids cannot be so innocent.
