So I want to start by saying that I don't know anything about Filipino culture. I also don't think you have to know about a culture to understand if a story is told well. This story wasn't told well.
The dialogue is mediocre. The characters have no depth and nobody actually grows. Everyone explains how they feel without showing it, which is a big problem with most shows tbh. Explaining what had happened just to fill in the blank spots so that the viewer understands characters' motives is lazy writing. We're watching a show Brenda, not listening to an audiobook.
Except for a couple of characters, the designs are not memorable at all. You don't really know who is who and why are they doing the things they do is so poorly explained. The alliances make no sense. Trying to fit in all that info and characters and events in 6 episodes was obviously a bad idea.
I like gore, but strangely even the gore felt out of place sometimes.
It's not the worst show I've seen, but I'm not gonna remember this. Watch it if you have nothing else to watch.

It is not easy to talk about this movie tbh. It is a movie about the affect stories have on us. How they come to be, how they change... And also a movie about oral tradition and how a story can be whatever the story-teller wants it to be.
It feels like you're watching a play on the bond between the story teller, the listeners and the story itself rather than a movie. But you're watching the play up close: you are on stage with the actors. I thought it was beautiful and enjoyed it a lot.
