Roughly translated as the “lowering of mourning”—a funeral custom observed by many Filipinos, Stephanie and Leo share their own thoughts on the tradition, while in the process, touch on loss and ideas on coping. As they explore the mourning process and recount their own experiences, they hope to encourage more open conversations on grief; helping shed some light and lightness on what many consider a dark and weighty subject.
