Amihan lives on Culion Island, where some of the inhabitants -
including her mother - have leprosy.
Ami loves her home - with its blue seas and lush forests,
Culion is all she has ever known. But the arrival of malicious

a strange and fragile hope in a colony of butterflies. Can they lead
her home before it's too late?
