Lolas Isabelita Vinuya, Belen Alarcon Culala and Maria Lalu Quilantang visit in Alarcon's home in Mapaniqui, Pampanga, Philippines. The old friends and neighbors grew up together. Mapaniqui was attacked by the Japanese during World War II as they searched for guerrillas. All the men and boys were killed and the women and girls were forced to walk to the Red House carrying the loot that the Japanese soldiers stole from them. The once regal mansion owned by a Filipino doctor was used as a garrison and "comfort station" where the women and girls, some as young as eight, were raped all night by the Japanese Imperial Army.
