Whang Od is 92 years old and she is the last Kalinga tattoo maker (Philippines). According to specialists this practice is about a thousand years old and was used as a skin natural language transmitted from generation to generation.

Short documentary directed, filmed and edited by @JoanPlanas

Journey to the North, and explore the art, tradition, and history of the Kalinga Tattoos and Tattooing. Known as Batok, experience this rich heritage as told by the Elders themselves, the last vestiges of this ancient practice.

Passed down from countless generations, spanning thousands of years, Batok comprises an integral part of our rich cultural heritage. Experience the vibrant culture of the Kalinga as was meant to be — covered in ink, and etched and strewn across their consciousness.

Produced/Edited/Directed and Scored by Pacifico Andreo S. Magno
