The short film, "Graduation" starring Donny Pangilinan and Nour Hooshmand for Called to Rescue, a nonprofit organization that helps rescue children who are missing, have been abused or trafficked. The short film focuses on an often-overlooked aspect of the human trafficking problem: the victim's reintegration into society. "Graduation" aims to liven the road to recovery by focusing on a real-life interaction between a survivor and a close family member.

Donny plays the kuya who grounds his sister with the words that give her the strength and courage to carry on. The simple action is a timely reminder that victims of abuse can be helped by acts of kindness through friends and family paving the way for healing.
