Manila is one of the most overpopulated places on Earth.
There are over 2000 families living above the dead in the Navotas Cemetery. Babies are born and the dead are buried in the same place.

    Wow, very impressed, nicely done. Moving piece, loved the music for it too. The biggest takeaway for me is the ending… the innocence of a child coupled with the harsh reality of what’s in store for them just a few short years away.

    I really love the grade on this, very subtle and really feels like a world removed from the one I’m familiar with.
