Just
in time for Halloween – Cignal TV, through its SARI SARI Channel, brings you a
brave and bold TV series about the lives of aswangs in “Tabi po”.
Growing
up, we were told countless tales about this infamous miscreation in Philippine folklore
known as aswang. Well, if you know the province of Capiz, I bet being
asked for aswang existence is a norm. Always depicted as a flesh eating
and ruthless creature hunting for its prey, is that what they really are –
mindless killing ghouls?
Tabi Po tells the story of Elias, a neophyte
aswang. Born from a tree during the country’s Spanish era, Elias embarks on a
journey with two older aswangs, Tasyo and Sabel, in the quest to understand
their true nature. Along the way, Elias meets Salome, a sex slave of the
friars, and falls in love with her. In the middle of a rising revolution, Elias
is forced to face his own battles – his love for Salome versus his hunger for
flesh, the growing rift between himself and Tasyo, the society’s stigma with
aswangs, and the battle with his own inner demons.
Unlike anything on TV now, Tabi Po shows love, beauty, amidst the horrific lives of these
creatures called aswang. Where did they come from? What is their purpose? Is there
more to the massive killing, gore and bloodshed typically associated with them?
