If you think aswang is merely a monster that eats your intestine. Well, you need to read more stories about the emergence of the aswang phenomena and you will see same themes: domestic abuse, post-partum depression, and cast-outs.
I just watched the MV of #ALAMATAswang and... it's lit ๐ฅ๐ค The song humanize "aswang" as it should be. Mainstream media depicted them as monsters and forget that aswang is also a human that has emotions and has the right to be loved.

one thing that i love about this mv is its straightforward approach. madali agad makuha, makarelate, at magets ng viewers ang imagery kahit mga bata. sometimes it doesnt need to be too poetic or too symbolistic. just show them the direct signifier

It's actually a realization for me that, yes, we can interpret "Ili Ili" in that way. Children will not allow their parents to go without them, so parents sometimes let their children sleep so they can go and "buy bread to feed their family" Nice!

the song/mv reminds us the struggle of ofws and their families here in the ph. i hope the mv/song, will also remind us al the deeper root of the increasing numbers migrant workers: kakulangan sa trabaho sa bansa
ILYILY MV OUTNOW

looking into that balikbayan boxes, i remembered our short film script way back our film class noon sa college
a story of a child who expects balikbayan box every year, until he turned 18, a box was delivered to their home, not full of goods, but with the body of his mother
