'As the bamboo breaks...' attempts to reveal a story and a history waiting to be understood. It looks into the people's wisdom as told, concealed and preserved by Malakas and Maganda. It is a wisdom that runs through the blood of its people even beyond the colonial experience. It is a wisdom that lives!
