Pio del Rio

1901, Balangiga. Eight-year-old Kulas flees town with his grandfather and their carabao to escape General Smith's Kill & Burn order. He finds a toddler amid a sea of corpses and together, the two boys struggle to survive the American occupation.

Intoxicated from their unspoken pasts, two souls from different islands of the Philippines cross path and continues the night forward in question of who or what is truly dead.
