Acting
An intimate oral history interview with a veteran educator from Bocaue, Bulacan, revealing the psychological tightrope of teaching truth under the shadow of the Marcos Martial Law regime.
“Matumba, Taya”(Fall, You’re It.) – draws from the Filipino games Tumbang Preso and Baraha, where matumba marks a fall and pagtaya means to take a risk. As two childhood friends, Lara and Lino, grow up, their innocent play turns into a reckoning with real-world injustices—forcing them to choose whether to change the system or be changed by it.
