In the year 2077, the Philippines faces an unprecedented crisis. Manila, the once-thriving capital, is sinking beneath rising seas and the weight of inequality.

Below, the poor struggle to survive in the flooded, crime-ridden slums of Lower Manila. Above, the wealthy live in opulence on a sprawling, man-made floating city, untouched by the chaos below.

Amid this fractured society, a girl from Lower Manila dreams of sparking a revolution and tearing down the barriers that keep her people oppressed. Meanwhile, a boy from the flotilla fights to prove his worth to his family by preserving their legacy-The Great Manila Divide.

When their paths cross, they are forced to confront their beliefs, their loyalties, and the cost of their dreams. In a world built on imbalance, can two lives from opposite sides bridge the gap-or will they shatter under the weight of their worlds?
