Event
Oros (The Coin Bearer)
In a Philippine slum area where even death becomes a provider, a cadaver may serve as license for holding a sakla operation (illegal gambling) in wakes. People may exploit the dead in order to generate income from the profits of gambling, and possibly pay for the dead?s burial.In Oros, a funeral parlor owner sells an unidentified body to Makoy, a sakla middleman, who,along with his reluctant brother, Abet set the stage for a three-week long fake wake holdingthe illegal saklaan. The sakla personnel deals with everyone involved, including Linda, animpoverished homeowner, as they agree upon a fictional story which will ?legitimize? the wakeand benefit even local town and police officials.
