The Missing follows Eric (Carlo Aquino), a young man working as an animator with a seemingly normal life. He is passionate about his profession, he regularly speaks with his mother, he even has a work crush called Carlo (Gio Gahol). However, upon being introduced to Eric, the audience sees his character has been drawn without a mouth, making his main source of communication a dry erase board. Eric has extreme difficult time trying to communicate with those around him because of his inability to speak as a lingering effect of the sexual abuse he faced at the hands of his uncle, something he has kept a secret his entire life.
One day, Eric’s mother, Rosalinda (You do not have permission to view the full content of this post.

Carlo gives Eric a ride as a thanks for helping him work late, but when the two young men enter Eric’s uncle’s apartment they find him dead in his bedroom. This sends Eric down a rabbit hole of nostalgia where his past meets his present, and demons that Eric thought he had long gotten rid of have come back for him once again.
