Bacao

Directed by Edgardo Vinarao

Bacao is about the torment of a young wife, Mayet, struggling to become pregnant. As their village is in the midst of a corn bountiful harvest, their sensual partnership also flourishes, though it is paradoxically fruitless. Mayet’s anxiety and paranoia grows as pregnancy evades her. To what extent will Mayet go to fulfill her desire of having a child?
