Kubrador revolves around 'jueteng', the game of numbers dating back to the country`s Spanish colonial period. It chronicles 3 days in the life of Amelita ( Gina Pareno ), a jueteng bet collector. Despite the regular crackdown on this illegal numbers game, she continues to collect bets from her regular patrons everyday. But then, a series of events turns her mundane existence into a perplexing game of life, luck and death. (2006)
