Alice Santiago has built her life capturing what is alive. As a photographer for the country's most respected nature and wildlife studio, she knows how to frame forests, coastlines, and creatures at their most vivid.
When a new assignment brings her to a coastal town tied to old beliefs and older bloodlines, Alice begins to sense that some places do not like being watched. Strange images follow her. Dreams grow invasive. And an object meant to be forgotten finds its way into her hands.
How far would you go to understand what you are seeing?
And what might the land take in return?
BRUHA is a slow-burn horror fantasy rooted in Filipino folklore, quiet temptation, and the moment curiosity turns into surrender.
