In this landmark adaptation for children, National Artist for Literature Francisco Arcellana’s classic story “The Mats” remains as fresh and powerful as when it first appeared more than 50 years ago. The mats serve as a metaphor for the bittersweet mix of love, laughter, and loss woven into the fabric of everyday life. Hermes Alegre’s palette illuminates each scene with brilliant splashes of color.
Marcelina's father comes home from a trip to Manila with beautiful hand-made sleeping mats for each member of his large family, including the three daughters who died when they were very young.
