Synopsis

Angelo dreams of creating a medicine that could cure his father's illness. With some knowledge about medicinal herbs, he makes a living as a faith healer. Everyone believes him, except Cielo Delos Santos, a doctor who swears to do everything to uncover Angelo's secret.

Things get a little complicated when Angelito (Zaijian Jaranilla), an exiled angel comes down to earth to help Angelo become a better man. As the three of them try to achieve their own goals, they realize that they need each other more than they are willing to admit.

Toni Gonzaga was the original choice to play the role Dra. Cielo Delos Santos which will be the love interest of Vic Sotto's character. This should be the reunion of Gonzaga and Sotto after being co-host in Eat Bulaga! back in 2002. However, due to Toni's conflicting schedule because of other showbiz commitments, Bea Alonzo was tapped to replace Toni Gonzaga in the movie.
