Sex tourism has been booming for decades. In the Philippines, a popular destination for sex tourism, many children are born out of these paid relationships without a future. In the drama of abandonment, these single mothers and their white children have to endure stigmatization by a highly intolerant society. However, with the help of a certain NGO, some have chosen to fight back and find the father of their children and to demand accountability. An informative and troubling report alongside Mary-Ann, who eventually finds the father of her daughter on a remote farm in the Fribourg countryside.
