In the streets of San Jose, the sport of Patintero is everything. All disputes are settled with it and a person’s reputation lives and dies with their skill in it. Meng Francisco is a 10 year old who loves Patintero. Unfortunately, she is the neighborhood 'patalo', a loser who hasn't won a single game. Determined to prove that she is more than that title, Meng assembles an unlikely team of fellow losers to compete on the grandest Patintero stage of them all: The Inter-brangay Sportsfest. Meng is followed into battle by Nicay, her over-studious best friend, Shifty, the weird but well-meaning new kid, and the enigmatic urban vigilante Z-boy. As the team trains, battles and claws its way to the top of the court, they must deal with issues off the court but what they end up doing will become the stuff of legend.
