00:00This is how Bong's daily routine looks like.
00:16He's looking for a way to survive.
00:19Bong is a 10-year-old embalmador.
00:24And he's not safe from the evil feelings of the spirits.
00:30This is San Antonio, Nueva Ecija.
00:54Why did you come here?
00:56Because the boat is coming.
00:58The boat is coming.
00:59Let's go.
01:02Make sure you carry it properly.
01:04Be careful.
01:06Bong, make sure you study what I taught you.
01:09Yes.
01:10Uncle, I'll study what you taught me.
01:13Take care.
01:20Bong, don't be afraid of death. Death is not scary.
01:23Our job is to make death presentable.
01:26Let's apply make-up.
01:28Okay, you do that.
01:31Don't be afraid.
01:33There, just be careful.
01:35There.
01:37You take care of that.
01:38Okay, uncle.
01:39You can do that, okay?
01:40Yes.
01:41Okay.
01:42Uncle Nonong is the owner of a funeral service.
01:45He also taught me how to embalm.
01:49It happened to me that while the coffin was still covered,
01:55something happened.
01:57The coffin was slightly tilted,
01:59and his eyes were still open.
02:02So when I opened it, it looked like he was looking at me.
02:06May 20, 2020.
02:08The boat is heading to the port of Malgapo.
02:13By the time they were about to go home,
02:14and they were about to kill him,
02:16there was a fire here.
02:18That's when his illness started.
02:24Suddenly, Nonong felt the tightness of his eyes.
02:28So what the family did inside the vehicle,
02:32they stopped it because they might get into an accident or something might happen.
02:39Bong!
02:41Bong!
02:43Bong!
02:44Help!
02:50The vehicle stopped in the hospital while carrying the body.
02:54And Nonong is currently in pain.
03:06At that time, the doctor said that
03:08Nonong is just being revived.
03:12We accepted that he is really gone.
03:15What should have happened is that Nonong was just buried in the boat.
03:21The boat was also brought to the funeral home.
03:38To be continued...
