Plot.

Mariel (Lady Lee), the illegitimate daughter of Shirley (Gina Alajar), has been the center of contention since her birth when Shirley's husband Ben (Julio Diaz) sells Mariel to child-trafficker Adul (Vivian Velez). Because of an immigration impediment, Adul consigns Mariel to the care of her cousin Jaime (Eddie Gutierrez) and nursemaid Dolor (Janice De Belen), the midwife at Mariel's birth. But Jaime's wife Laila (Charo Santos) doesn't want to keep the baby because the sight of an infant reminds her of her own stillborn child, and Dolor's boyfriend Ramir is jealous of the love and attention Dolor gives the baby. Just when Laila has accepted Mariel, Adul returns to claim her adopted now-grown daughter, but Dolor inadvertently learns of Adul's wicked plan to sell Mariel for a large amount.

Wiki.

Kailan Ka Magiging Akin (English: When Will You Be Mine) is a 1991 Philippine melodrama film directed by Chito S. Roño from a story and screenplay written by Mia A. Concio, inspired by the sensational real-life criminal cases of child trafficking and kidnapping. The film stars Janice de Belen, Gabby Concepcion, Eddie Gutierrez, Charo Santos-Concio, Vivian Velez, Gina Alajar, Julio Diaz, Carmina Villarroel, and Cherry Pie Picache, and child actress Lady Lee. The theme song of the same name was performed by Dulce, with compositions by Nonong Buencamino and lyrics by Jose Bartolome.

Produced and distributed by Vision Films, the film was theatrically released on 20 June 1991, as one of the entries for the newly revived Manila Film Festival. In 2025, the film was digitally scanned and enhanced by ABS-CBN Film Restoration.
