Bituing Walang Ningning
7.7
“No dreams are too high for those who believe. No stars are too far for those who reach out.”
Dorina is an orphaned sampaguita vendor who dreams of becoming a big singing star like her idol, Lavinia. It later turns out that Lavinia is nothing like what Dorina thought she was. This disillusionment spurs the young girl to make it big as a singer and eventually become Lavinia’s chief rival.
