Joy, a college-educated woman, unwillingly becomes a domestic helper in Hong Kong to support her family, while dreaming of moving to Canada with them. Just as her visa approval nears, her cash-strapped employer cuts her pay in half, prompting her to seek additional work. While working at a bar, she meets Ethan, a playboy bartender, and they inevitably fall in love. However, Ethan must care for his ailing father in Hong Kong, while Joy is determined to pursue her dreams in Canada. As they navigate life’s pivotal choices, will their love triumph? The palpable onscreen chemistry between lead actors Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards helped propel the film to become the highest-grossing Filipino film of all time.
