A story about courtship, getting the right wingman and the unusual challenges of finding love in 20th century Philippines.

You don’t need to listen to the 3rd episode if this is your first one. But I encourage you to read the article since it covers courtship and flirting in the early 20th century Philippines.

The episode article covers information about our favourite mythical creature in the Philippines on our website www.storiesfromthebarrio.com

This is an intro to my next story. This story is based on my uncle’s story before the ‘50s and while it has some supernatural elements, the premise is funny. I’ve been working hard on a series of stories with a single theme on dreams but having difficulty producing it so I think it would be better to introduce this story and move on. I will be producing the entire episode this month and I hope you’d catch it when it’s released.

An elusive treasure plague an entire family. Is it a curse or a gift?

The Legend of Golden Lily: Yamashita’s Gold is the most comprehensive article I found online about Yamashita’s treasure.

A story about Martial Law and growing up in a small barrio. This episode is inspired by Lav Diaz film, Ebolusyon ng Isang Pamilyang Pilipino .

If you want to watch the film, you can rent it at Mubi for $3.99. Note that the film runs for more than ten hours so be sure to have you day cleared off.

If you want to learn more about Martial Law, Visit The Digital Martial Law in the Philippines. Please educate yourself. Not everyone who lived through Martial Law knows what really happened during the time due to suppression of Freedom of the Press and the government handling what news comes out nationwide.
