Tumang Kalinaw

"Sometimes, silence is the loudest scream."

Tumang Kalinaw is a film in which follows the story of Kaloy, who is an aspiring poet that becomes the breadwinner of his family at a very young age after his father died. Kaloy faces the adversities of extreme poverty and the judgment of the society towards the marginalization. Kaloy's life is a mirror of those who aspire to go against the strong current of fate in the pursuit of their dreams. However, his life takes the greatest turn as he continues to write his art by showing that the reality of the poor is something that one should never coat with euphemism; as the loudest cry is sometimes the most silent screams one can never let the world hear.
