1898: Our Last Men in the Philippines is a gripping war film that takes place during the Philippine Revolution. The movie depicts the events of the Siege of Baler, a long and grueling battle between Spanish soldiers and Filipino revolutionaries. It explores the themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the brutal realities of war.

A young man enlists in the army and goes off to war, leaving behind his sister and mother. He faces guilt and shame when he is unable to live up to his family's honor and faces the consequences of his actions.

Mademoiselle de Maupin escapes from her uncle's castle, invaded by Hungarian troops, under the guise of a clergyman named Theodore. An army recruiter forces Theodore to enlist in the King's army, and not even the religious robe is an insurance against it. Theodore is assigned to be aide-de-camp to Alcibiade, a man as virile in combat, as he seems troubled for the figure of his aid. D'Albert, an aristocrat, will expose Theodore's true sex, and after a number of confusing, comedy situations, Alcibiade will appease his troubled feelings.

In 1898, a band of Spanish soldiers heroically defended Baler against Filipino forces for 337 long and grueling days. The battle, now referred to as the Siege of Baler, is the setting of a forbidden love between a Mestizo soldier and a Filipina lass who lived at the end of the 19th century.
