Five Filipina domestic helpers in Hong Kong spend their one day off a week rehearsing for a beauty pageant run by and for migrant workers, turning a few borrowed hours into dignity their employers rarely grant. Baby Ruth Villarama follows them from crowded shared rooms to the stage without smoothing over what is underneath the glitter.
