What is Drowning in My Bedroom about?

When torrential rain turns Manila’s streets into dangerous rivers, Gayla is left alone in her bedroom at a residential centre for children with disabilities. Outside, Junjun’s home has been swept away, and his sick sister urgently needs medicine. Although the two children have judged each other from afar, the rising flood forces them together. Trapped by the water and running out of time, Gayla and Junjun must overcome fear, prejudice and impossible odds to survive.
