Synopsis:
This is the story of an "Overseas Filipino Worker" in Saudi Arabia missing his family back home; a "new hero" as tagged by the government. The story focuses on the most challenging experience of a stranger working in a strange land, how he battles with nostalgia. That's the grim part of his evenings alone in a room. He is sleepless: lying on a bed disturbed by the ticking of the clock that breaks the silence; sitting and walking around as the evening deepens. How many more evenings like this would he encounter before he gets with his loved ones? Is he doing the right thing? What other alternative can he think of Stay or go back home? Is he a new hero, or a mad hero?
