The(ir) Blurb...

A young father is confronted by his buddies when his young son daydreams of becoming the princess in a Philippine fairy tale. What does the father do? How should he react? Should he 'straighten out' the boy to save face and prove his own masculinity to his pals? Or is this the moment that he must choose his kids over his longtime pals?
