Since Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte took office in June 2016, nearly 30,000* people have been killed by vigilantes and police in a campaign to "neutralise" the country's alleged widespread crystal meth addiction. He's promised to fill the country's morgues. Orly Fernandez manages and lives at Eusebio's - a 24-hr funeral parlour in Manila. A die-hard Duterte supporter, his relationship with his customers and the journalists who hang around his premises waiting for the next story colour the empathy he holds for people who, like him, are poor and mostly uneducated. His 67th birthday is on Valentine's Day - an anniversary we see celebrated with his employees, some family, photojournalist nightcrawlers and his dogs. We follow him, his team and Angelita - the mother of a victim of an extrajudicial killing - as they give us an intimate understanding of the people behind the headlines.
