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?
As a young girl, Tingting, the middle child, really wanted to become a beauty queen like her mother. However, on her first year on political science student at a state university, she begins to develop passion for activism and changes her mind about pursuing a beauty title. Expressing her disapproval on her second daughter's newfound calling, Dahlia throws a fit and unexpectedly falls ill. Concerned about her mother's well-being, Tingting backpedals and snatches a crown of her own. Her belief in radical politics, however, remains deeply rooted in her life.
