In an alternate Philippine universe, Metro Manila has been acquired by an umbrella corporation, Owlways Watching and Listening (O.W.L Corp). Today it is called Lunan City, where mythical creatures live alongside humans and surveillance cameras follow you wherever you go. In the year 2030, schools of Flying Fish have caused a toxic outbreak across the city that forces its citizens to hide indoors. Follow the stories of seven artists living in the Eñya Boarding House. Each must struggle, strive and survive the circumstances of their strange new normal.
