As a movie buff, I’d put it like this: “After decades apart, my three Filipino kin, who had all made Italy their home through domestic work, found themselves under one roof in my elder sister Lilia’s newly inherited villa. As twilight gave way to the dark of night, our long-anticipated reunion dredged up memories that had been hidden away and wounds left untouched.
