Character Breakdown

EVE
Late 20s to early 30s. Filipina. Recently pregnant.
ANGELA
Late 20s to early 30s. Filipina. Eve’s twin sister.
MANANANGGAL / NANAY
Any age. Any gender. A singular manifestation of multiple spirits embedded in Eve’s home: a creature from Filipino mythology; Eve and Angela’s memories and impressions of their mother throughout their lives; and the essence of the healing figure they were in their previous pre-colonial life. How human or creature-like they appear is open to interpretation. Apparently, their name is Ernesto.
