Synopsis: Based on the St. Louis World Fair of 1904 where over 1,000 Filipinos were imported to America to be featured in a human zoo, we follow the story of two Filipina women and one Filipina girl lost to its history who remain buried 13,000 kilometres away from home. Twice blessed is an oddly absurdist, Beckett-like story. With a stage covered in soil and a god eating dog, these three characters find family and joy in one another among their simulacrum of home.
