Portraits of a Massacre

ByVictoria Conlu

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
In the town of Tarongoy, power belongs to a single family. The mayoralty is poised to pass onto the incumbent's only son, Fausto. Raised intended to marry Lucy, the daughter of a neighboring mayor, Fausto struggles to defeat his own inner demons before the office of mayor falls onto his shoulders. When a political upset draws the ire of Fausto's father upon the Armonios, the Mayor enlists the help of the desperate poor to ensure his family's hold on power. Inspired by the story of the 2009 Maguindanao Massacre, this story delves into the minds of four young adults entrenched in political turmoil and seeks to answer the burning question on all of their minds: "How did I get here?".
