A sickly mestizo boy, Cesar was studying fine arts in college when he found out that he was color blind - a disability that shattered him but did not deter him from pursuing his dreams to become an artist. In the 1930s, he met the woman who would become his life's greatest supporter, Betty, but together they would brave challenges in order for their love to flourish. A mestizo with Spanish roots, Cesar was not immediately accepted by the family of Betty, whose grandfather was a Katipunero. Betty's family eventually agreed to the young lovers' marriage, which would become tumultuous as Cesar got sick with emphysema and became bedridden. He eventually worked at a promotions company making art for advertisements, putting his own art on hold to provide for his family. Only after work did Cesar focus on his own art, compelling the ever-understanding Betty to give way to her husband's passion and work hard to finance their growing family's needs. How did Cesar deal with his vision deficiency and fight for his love for Betty? How did the couple manage to withstand all the challenges that came their way? See less
