Sta. Niña (2012) is a powerful drama that follows the story of a young Catholic girl who must navigate forgiveness, faith, and tragedy. Set in Pampanga, Philippines, the film explores themes of religion, separation, sin, and sacrifice.

As she grapples with her beliefs and the hypocrisy of those around her, she must find the strength to carry on. The film also touches on themes such as Catholicism, Alzheimer's disease, incest, and faith healing.

In the aftermath of the eruption of Mount Pinatubo, a volcano dormant for more than 400 years, the residents of the whole town of San Simon in Pampanga was engulfed by dust and thick mudflow called lahar. The whole surviving residents of the devastated community are relocated to transitional evacuation center, a tent city, where different and unique personalities meet: Sheila, a migrant worker from Germany who is struggling to keep her family intact at all costs; Sonia who is looking for her missing husband while pretending as a handicapped so she can beg on the streets; Ditas, who returns in Pampanga after getting pregnant in Manila; and Elena, a mother who lost her whole family in the eruption, yet she keeps a positive outlook in life that as long as she remembers her relatives no amount of tragedy could keep her from reminiscing of their once peaceful lives.
