Synopsis
Seven sturdy mature men dressed in no more than the bahag, the traditional string with loincloth as worn by the original inhabitants of the Philippines, roam the city. It couldn't be more Filipino, so why should Filipinos get upset about it? The men go out into the world as kings with their ethnic G-string (bahag). They travel in a jolting van from the natural forests to the urban jungle. The Bahag Kings, descendants of noble rulers but also of village idiots, search all over for wala (nothing). What was once traditional costume turns out to have become obscene. (GjZ)
