Miss Universe 1969 Dahlia Rodriguez-De Veyra throws an intimate dinner party to celebrate the centennial birthday of her late mother, who was crowned Miss Philippines 1939 and Manila’s last Carnival Queen. Leading the guest list are her three headstrong daughters who are all international beauty pageant titlists, with the youngest son being a transwoman whom the domineering Queen Mother disowned, ultimately tearing the family apart. In her attempt to reconcile with her daughters, will Dahlia be able to bring her family back together, or will it only reopen old wounds and reveal three generations of secrets and lies?
Getting the show on the road, Dahlia opens the celebration by revealing the sad truth about the life of her late mother, Tarsila Zamora, the first beauty queen in the family. The sordid tale of loveless marriage sets the stage for how Dahlia grew up to become Miss Universe 1969, why she married a much older man, and how she made sure her first two daughters would follow her formidable.
