Benguet Costumes of the 1930s & 1940s

This page was first developed in support of the Igorot-American short film project of RKST based in Honolulu, HI. Her production "Taray" part 1 of 3 short films was inspired by her grandmother's experience as a child encountering the impacts of WW2 in Benguet, PI. RKS explores how the war has affected her family's trajectories in an exploration of it through the 3-part short film series. To read more about it visit:
