Hayo Abuel

Inspired by a bird in Philippine folklore, Ibong Adarna, “Like Those of Birds” is about Aya - a young woman who grew up serving the town’s corrupted mayor, secretly working with a group of protest artists who stand up against injustices in their town.

About a family, a town, and a problem that cannot be solved alone. This is the story involving the Damgo Family in the film. In serious problems, how important is the voice of each member of the family? A social problem that, no matter how many centuries have passed, may still be the plight of every Filipino.

Elation, uncertainty, comfort, fear, love — all and thousands of emotions present as two boys meet in their secret spot by the stream.
