Overview
Serving as a direct cinematic spin-off or continuation to the legendary 1973 true-to-life crime film Hulihin si... Tiagong Akyat, this movie chronicles the life of Tiago's son, known as "Boy Imus." Growing up in Imus, Cavite, he is forced to live under the massive shadow and lawless legacy of his infamous father. Inheriting both his father’s grit and a mystical amulet (anting-anting) that grants him invincibility, Boy Imus navigates a dangerous path of survival, family honor, and street-level criminality.
