Synopsis:
Anna is brought to the province to meet her relatives for the first time. With its unfamiliar sights, sound and smell, she doesn't like it one bit. Her experience is made worse when she meets three kids who bully her into going into a haunted forest. Together with her dog, Rambo, she ventures into the shadows and makes a startling discovery…
Reviews:
"Libingan is short, sweet, and snappy — and it succeeds just by being a simple story that's very well-told. In the small, elegant story of a little girl exploring a dark forest, it doesn't try anything fancy, but still nails all the right notes, from the start all the way to the satisfying ending."
-K-Zone Magazine blog
"More than its impressive presentation, Libingan triumphs with its desire to incorporate local traditions and mythology to its overall story, stressing Tuldok's objective to create animated films that would reflect Pinoy culture."
-Philippine Entertainment Portal
