Bagahe Movie Plot Summary
In this very touching drama movie, Angeli Bayani plays Mercy Agbunag, a 35-year old OFW who has just returned to the Philippines and reunited with her family in a remote town in Benguet.
Shortly, a news report says that a newborn baby was found inside a trash bin of a passenger plane. Later, a team of NBI (National Bureau of Investigation) agents arrived at their home and requested her to come with them for an investigation.
The investigation includes the torturing physical and psychological examinations on her. And as expected, Mercy faced public scrutiny and a lot of judgmental people wanted her to suffer from the death penalty. In addition, a politician is using the issue to gain sympathy from the voters.
Nevertheless, the movie also exposes the dilemma of committing a crime, and that the suspect can also be a victim at the same time.
