Socio political film Oro (Gold)—one of this year’s eight finalists in the upcoming Metro Manila Film Festival—aims to show the public how corruption and violence destroys the true spirit of the law.

Based on true events now dubbed as the “Gata 4 Massacre,” Oro depicts the life of four small-scale miners who were murdered on March 23, 2014, a Sunday night, at their small but gold-rich community in Barangay Gata, Caramoan, Camarines Sur.
