For many girls, there’s much ado about turning 18, and understandably so. It’s an age associated to newfound freedom and exciting discoveries. But the excitement can turn into heartache and even lead to an irreparable mistake if one isn’t careful. Such is the story of Mira in the VMX movie Dutdot, starring Aliya Raymundo.

Mira decides to get a tattoo to mark her 18th birthday. As the only child of a single mother, she’s been sheltered all her life, and now she feels like she can finally do what she wants without asking permission from her mom Mercy (Krista Miller).

Her godfather, Ninong Rodel (Chester Grecia), happens to be a professional tattoo artist, and he’s happy to do her first tattoo as a birthday present. But while he’s working on her thigh, one thing leads to another and Mira has her sexual awakening.

Rodel is known to have sexual affairs with his clients, but Mira believes that what they have is something real, so she keeps coming back to him. As it turns out, Rodel has feelings for Mercy, who is also not immune to his charm and welcomes his advances.

Meanwhile, Mira’s childhood friend, Jericho (Nico Valdez), is just by her side waiting to be noticed.

Find out how Mira will cope with heartbreak and betrayal when she discovers her mother’s relationship with Rodel. Can she trust her heart with Jericho when he reveals his feelings for her? And should she?
