Horror

Directed by Kiersten Villanueva

After his undocumented sister disappears amid escalating ICE raids and National Guard unrest in Los Angeles, a conservative Filipino man searches her apartment for answers, only to uncover a terrifying presence tied to the Aswang — a shapeshifting creature from Filipino folklore. As paranoia and guilt consume him, his desperate investigation spirals into a nightmarish confrontation with the monsters created by fear, division, and the false promise of the American Dream.
