This video is a new 'film opera' by Manila-based director Khavn De La Cruz.
'Eight days before Christmas, Typhoon Sendong ravaged a small city in the northern coastline of the Philippines, burying most of it in water. 8,128 families displaced; almost 5000 dead; at least a thousand missing, most of them presumed to have been drwned alive. Three weeks after, a man is found walking around the city in broad daylight, a dead 'baby' in his arms. He wanders around the business district, dogged by local who wondered, sympathized, empathized. Following the ghost of his wife, he walks on until he reaches a river and drowns himself.' – Khavn
