Kommander Kulas wakes up several times and dreams that he is a giant cockroach. He wakes up for the last time and sees there are stitches on his chest: Someone has stolen his heart during the night.
So along with his best and only friend, The Poor Carabao, he ventures the long and unwinding road of Kamias, which spans the vast landscape of the Philippines, to look for his missing heart. Kommander Kulas, the official fool, meets several hearty characters in the tarot card deck of his journey. Lovesong numbers are scattered throughout the film.
In the end, Kommander Kulas does not find his heart. He has a heart attack in the middle of the road. The end.
