With Time (A)

4 / 15 / 2023

Setting: Lipa City, Batangas, Philippines. Barangay 7. Sa calle. Late 80s.

Set A is an interpretation of Paco's world when he was in his 20s. Barik barik (Hella drinking). Alak at pulutan (Alcohol and drinking snacks).

After a long day, the two want to do nothing but hangout and enjoy eachother's company.

The food on the table feeds the body.

The conversations at the table feed the mind and soul.

Knowledge. Wisdom. Memories. Stories. Tears of joy and happiness. Tears of sadness and frustration.

All being exchanged at the table
