Maritess, a nursing student gets plagued by inexplicable nightmares when she moves into a dormitory. On a trip to Quiapo, a seer tells her that she is a conduit between the living and the dead, and that ghosts are drawn to her because she's one of the few who can help them cross to the other side. Back at the dorm, Maritess meets Mia, her fellow boarder, and things get even stranger. Her nightmares get worse and she confides in a new found friend, Emerson. Maritess eventually discovers that Mia is a ghost of a nursing student who, along with her friend Aya disappeared about five years ago and the history unfolds.
