I redrew a screenshot with these two cause why not I got inspired. I love Beauty and the Beast and this scene got the same vibe.

When Rodrigo Duterte is voted president of the Philippines, he sets in motion a machinery of death to execute suspected drug users and street peddlers. Aswang follows a group of people whose lives get caught up with the growing violence during two years of killings in Manila.
“I was feeling everything very raw. For instance, I was filming in a crime scene and then I was filming with a lot of TV people, and there was this woman who I suddenly heard, because I was the only one monitoring sound, I suddenly heard a woman praying very low. And I looked for this woman and I found her and she was praying that it was not her daughter that was dead on the street. Its not just understanding that she was praying but also understanding this entire spirituality, this entire culture that surrounds this story.”
