When the Crow Turns White, When the Heron Turns Black

As a young woman born in a tradition bound town but raised in the modernizing atmosphere of Manila, Julie gropes towards maturity without benefit of guidance from understanding elders. Home for the traditional town fiesta, she meets the poor boy next-door; Dido Ventura (Bembol Rocco) whose passion and impulsiveness rush her into an elopement but Dido's family has a long-standing grievance against the Monserrats who through fraudulence in the past had grabbed the Ventura property. When the young lovers ask for permission to marry, Julie's snooty aunts make her choose between her present status as a rich single Monserrat, and an uncertain future as housewife of Dido. In a moment of indecisiveness, Julie gives up Dido and goes back to her music studies. At the university, Julie is visited by the elderly violinist from her hometown whom she idolizes. Maestro Juan Roque (Jonee Gamboa) has learned she is pregnant and he has come to tell Julie that he is her father and then walks out on him.
