Penduko

synopsis

In this new film version of the iconic comic book character, Pedro Penduko is the son of a philanthropic faith healer in the countryside. Yearning for a more modern and materialistic life, Pedro runs away to the city to live independently and pursue finer things in life. Unfortunately, he doesn't find the prosperity he yearns. That is, until he is recruited in an underground company called Hatinggabi, where people with supernatural gifts like Pedro are formally trained and sent to heal victims of sorcery in exchange for money. His new career, however, will lead him to an identity crisis that asks the question: is his destiny to be a healer or a sorcerer?
