Yapak de Mano

Stitched with history. Worn by struggle

2025 · 15 min · Documentary

In the narrow streets of Marikina City, where the sound of hammers once echoed endlessly, Soles of Marikina unfolds as a cinematic portrait of craft, struggle, and survival. The film follows aging shoemakers and young apprentices as they work by hand—cutting leather, shaping soles, stitching stories into every pair—while fighting to keep an industry alive in a rapidly changing world.

Directed by Franciska Go · Written by Anna Barongan
