There is one barrio which has been forgotten by everyone,

Only few people are left living there due to living difficulty.

The sea is practically barren—

there’s always so little, sometimes no catch at all.

That's why people are always starving,

they are struggling on how they can survive and get out of poverty.

but despite the sea surrounding the Barrio,

there's a hidden fairy.

The fairy was said to be beautiful and alluring, and it looks like a—

mermaid.

However it doesn't have a tail, but it's always wet,

she is the only solution for the barrio,

she is the only one who can give plentiful bounty for every one,

tons of fish,

But it’s waiting for something in return.

The fairy needs to be fed.

And once the fairy’s hunger is satisfied,

no one will struggle anymore, because she’ll bless the sea with abundance.

I hope the fairy shows herself soon, Papa,

so you and mom won’t have such a hard time anymore.

You really believe me?

Of course, Papa—because you’re the one who said it.

Get some sleep now, son.

You too, Papa. Rest and sleep.

Let's go?

Alright.

Where have you been?

Where else?

I was trying to make money so we can eat something.

Have you been to Zaldy?

So what?

If he's the one feeding me and Ron-ron,

why wouldn’t I do it?

Instead of just waiting for blessing coming from you that I won't even have any use.

What's that? huh?

Now you're even including your son in your beliefs in fairy?

The Barrio thinks the opposite about that.

The fairy is the curse,

the reason why we can catch any fish.

I really don’t know what’s wrong with you.

There's nothing wrong with believing.

I wish your beliefs could actually feed us.

That’s exactly why you never catch anything— because of your beliefs.

But I'm not the only one who can't catch anything.

The sea is really barren.

Look at the others,

even if they don’t have any catch, there's a lot of way to make money.

Look at you! You're just waiting for blessings! Huh?

Come to think of it, you don't really know how to do anything else,

other than bringing misfortune.

Let me go, touch me once you're capable of giving us food.

Go to the sea early tomorrow, you need to go earlier than Lando,

maybe then you'll catch something.

What now? You're still sleepy?

Later I’ll teach you how to use this, okay?

The proper way to throw it.

Hey! Jonas.

Pipoy, Lando.

You're pretty early today.

I was thinking that if I go early, I might finally catch some fish.

Or maybe what you really want to catch is the fairy?

Hey, you're always fooling around.

So why did you come along today, Pipoy?

Because of him, I was sleeping so comfortably.

Well, so you can finally learn how to fish, so I’ll have someone to help me here.

Brother!

Pipoy!

Why is she here?

Oh no, you two forgot your bait again.

See? I warned you about that, and you still left it behind!

I'm sorry, Bro.

Hey Jonas,

I saw your wife at Zaldy’s place again last night.

I don’t know why you let Martha and Zaldy treat you like that.

Hey Diana,

don’t let me find out you’re following in Martha’s footsteps,

getting involved with Zaldy too.

You really are something, Bro— you’re always mad at me and Pipoy.

Still, it’s partly my fault things turned out this way,

if only I could give them what they need.

Good grief, your mind really has been poisoned.

It's all trash.

A woman?

Alive...

Wake up!

You feel so good, my Zaldy,

don’t stop.

Don’t stop, oh shit.

Maybe you're the fairy we've been waiting for?

Go on ahead, Pipoy.

Prepare breakfast, okay?

Lando, where’s Jonas?

Maybe he’s still out at sea,

hoping he can catch something.

And what if he doesn't? Then we won't have anything to eat again today.

That’s why you’re going back to Zaldy again.

What did you say?

Martha,

tell me,

is it just the money and food you want from Zaldy,

or do you actually enjoy what you two are doing?

Hey Lando,

you have no right to tell me what to do,

or how to handle my relationship with Jonas.

Martha,

Martha,

maybe you’re forgetting—

I was the one who introduced you to Jonas.

You were even the first to defend him back then.

Because you said...

You felt sorry for him and that he was a good person,

right?

That’s why you fell in love with him, didn’t you?

I never thought it would reach the point where,

you’d almost drive him away and replace him with someone else.

You know, if I had only known,

if I had known you would treat my friend like this,

I never would have introduced the two of you.

Martha...

Ah, Martha.

Martha...

So good.

Oh,

it’s you?

What are you doing?

Yeah!

Yeah!

Yeah!

You're glowing.

You can’t speak?

What happened between us earlier— is that what you needed?

Don't go outside, okay? Someone else might see you.

Do you want some food?

Alright, I'll come back for you. Just stay right here, okay?

You smell so good now.

So, where have you been?

With all that time out at sea, did you even catch anything,

or did you hook something—

What? Are you just going to sit there and stare?

I'm asking you where you came from.

I felt dizzy earlier, so I fell asleep in the hut.

My God, the house is so close to the hut, and you still didn’t come home to rest,

just a short walk away—so Ron-ron could have been with someone.

There’s really no hope for this.

So, no catch again? I’ll just go out so we have something to eat.

Better than lying around here doing nothing.

Papa, did you two fight?

No, son.

Do you want me to read you a story instead?

Yes, I want that.

What's up?

When are you going to leave that husband of yours?

You probably already know.

That people here are already gossiping about us…

and you’re just using me for money.

No.

That’s not true,

believe me.

Martha, stop fooling me. I already know the truth.

Now...

If you don’t want the people here talking about us,

then leave your husband.

You should

belong only to me.

You’re mine alone.

I’ll find a way.

Good, because if you don’t...

Remember,

I’m the one giving you money and food.

Yes.

Unless you want all of that gone.

Sorry.

Good. I’m glad we understand each other.

Your fever’s high again.

Oh? Why?

His fever came back again.

What?

He hasn’t taken his maintenance medicine for a long time,

that’s probably why.

Everything really has to happen all at once?

Look at this—

we can’t even afford our child’s medicine!

Damn it!

You don’t even know what to prioritize.

If you should buy medicine or buy food—damn it.

So annoying!

So, what are you going to do?

I’m taking him to the hospital.

Oh really?

And what are you going to use to pay?

What?

We really don’t have any choice anymore!

Damn it, Jonas, are you even thinking? Huh?

Huh?

You’re not thinking at all!

No one will even lend us money anymore!

What else are you going to use to pay the hospital?

Before you make decisions like that, think them through first,

because that decision of yours is so stupid.

Give him to me, give it here. You’re so stupid.

Give him to me, put Ron-ron down— let me take him.

Hey, hey.

So many, so, so many.

So many, so, so many.

We’re so lucky.

- Jonas, you caught so much— - So many!

- More than all of us. - There's so many!

Maybe it’s just luck. What matters is we’re finally catching plenty now.

So many, so, so many!

You’re lucky, you’re loaded.

Thank God that cursed mermaid finally left us alone.

Or maybe someone already caught the mermaid.

Enough with that mermaid talk.

What’s important is we caught a lot of fish.

Let's go, help him.

Jonas,

who would’ve thought you’d still get a catch in your condition?

I’ll buy that.

Yeah, right!

Looks like we might earn two thousand from this.

- Wow, two thousand. - Woohoo!

What two thousand? It’s only two hundred.

Why is it only this much?

Two thousand suddenly became two hundred.

Yeah, why is it just two hundred? What you’re giving us feels short.

You should be grateful I even added to it—

I can still cut it down more.

We’re the ones breaking our backs, but we’re still the ones losing out.

Hey Jonas, stop complaining so we can all go home.

He is right.

Is this really how it’s going to be, Zaldy?

Why does our livelihood seem like a game to you?

Huh?

Lando, I’m easy to deal with—if you want, you can sell that to someone else.

That is, if anyone will still buy.

What?

Add a little more to this,

Yes, add more.

Add more to this. Add mor—

What the...

Poor Jonas.

I’m the only one putting up with you people here.

That’s too much.

Are you alright?

Are you okay?

Miss, I’ll buy those—five hundred for that, two hundred for the other.

Okay, sir.

Alright, hurry up.

We might get dragged into that.

Go ahead, we've got this.

Hey Miss.

Jonas, where are you going?

Hurry up and wrap those.

You look smoother,

it’s like your scales are gone.

Are you the reason we caught so much today?

If you’re the one who gave us all this,

what’s the price?

Me?

Is it my body you want in return?

There it is, there it is.

That’s a nice name—Iana, Iana.

Can I call you Iana?

I was able to buy a little medicine for Ron-ron.

This will have to do for now, just to bring his fever down.

And here, I hid a bit of fish for us.

What happened to you? You look so pale.

What’s going on? Yesterday you were dizzy, and now you’re pale.

It looks like you’re the one who needs the medicine.

It’s nothing.

Get some rest.

You too—take a break from looking for money today.

I told you, right?

You can always find a way. Just a bit more effort,

keep going so we can save for Ron-ron’s next checkup.

Get some rest.

Okay, love.

Are you okay now?

Why aren’t you resting yet?

It’s nothing, I’ll just finish this.

What are you thinking about?

I’m just thinking… I hope that in the next days, we still get plenty of fish.

Not just tomorrow, but in all the days after that.

Why are you smiling like that?

I just remembered...

I just remembered how you always tell me, “and in the days to come,”

Whenever something good happens to me.

You always say that—

you never gave up.

Out of all the people you could’ve loved, you still chose me.

You stayed.

That’s what gives me strength.

Because I know you can.

That’s why I fell in love with you—

because no matter what people say about you, you never let it affect you.

But Jonas,

I’m sorry if I lost my trust in you.

With all the problems we’ve gone through,

I lost myself too.

But I hope we can bring back the love we used to have.

I’ll do everything so we never lose it again.

You never really lost it, Jonas.

I promise, I’ll do everything for both of you.

Hey Jonas, looks like you're getting a big catch every single day now.

How did you manage to do that?

He’s my idol!

Let me help you out.

That’s a lot.

Bro.

Be honest with me—

Did you catch a fairy?

Huh?

What are you talking about?

Bro,

I've been noticing it for days.

You always catch so much,

and you’re always deep in thought.

I’m just thinking about Ron-ron.

And how you’re always rushing to leave, Bro,

because you’ve still got somewhere to go.

Bro,

I don’t believe what they say about the fairy being a curse on the water.

I believe more in the stories you passed on to me,

that the fairies,

are the ones giving us catches this big.

So, bro, if what I’m saying to you is right and you really are hiding the fairy,

you can trust me, Bro.

I'll support you.

Hey, hey, hey—

what’s this fairy talk I’m hearing from you?

Fairy this, fairy that—you two and your wild ideas.

You, Pipoy, make sure no one hears you saying that,

unless you want to be laughed at too.

Bro,

why won’t you believe it?

Well, why do you believe it so easily?

What if it’s true, Bro?

I’ll prove it to you.

Look at all these!

Come with me to the market later, we’ll sell them.

Alright.

You’re really earning a lot here, Jonas.

Why don’t you guys throw it?

Look at that—so much.

Thanks for today’s catch.

Can we do this again tomorrow?

This, this thing I’m feeling— are you the one causing this too?

Ron-ron told me earlier I was talking in my sleep.

What did I say?

Wow, the food tastes so good.

Even while sleeping, you’re still eating.

You, Pa—please eat.

What’s happening to you?

Jonas,

what happened to you?

It’s nothing, maybe it’s just something I ate or drank.

You’ve been like that since the other day— what exactly are you feeling?

Don’t worry,

I’m fine.

No catch today.

Is this because I didn’t give in to you, Iana?

Damn it…No catch again.

Just three.

So what happens to us now?

You’re lucky you even got three. We got nothing.

I wonder what happened... What about Jonas?

What do you think?

Oh?

You didn’t catch anything either?

That damn mermaid— looks like she’s back again.

You know, if I ever catch that mermaid,

I’ll be the first to kill her.

As long as that takes away our bad luck.

So you two, stop believing that she’s the one,

bringing us luck. She’s a curse here— a curse in our lives.

- Right. - She should just be dead already.

Kill that mermaid.

Yeah.

My god.

So we can finally catch something for once.

We’re so unlucky.

Later, prepare breakfast, okay?

- Bro. - Jonas,

- Jonas, - Jonas.

- Jonas, - Help! Help,

- Jonas, Jonas, - Help! Help,

Jonas, wake up—Jonas, Jonas.

Help!

Martha,

what happened?

Lando brought you here earlier—

you fainted.

You keep saying you’re fine,

that nothing’s wrong—

well look at you now,

I don’t know what kind of bad luck keeps coming into my life,

and now even you are getting sick.

Is there really not a single day when we don’t have a problem?

Martha,

we’ll get through this.

What if I’m already tired?

What if I don’t want this anymore?

I’m sorry I haven’t visited you.

I need you, Iana.

What did I tell you, huh?

Our agreement was clear, wasn’t it? Every night.

I don’t understand why you still haven’t left Jonas.

Sorry.

Haven’t you thought Jonas might have someone else,

that’s why he’s hiding things from you?

What is this?

That’s all for now— until you finally leave Jonas.

That’s all I can give you for now.

Why are you here?

You haven’t been showing up for me these past days.

Does Lando know about this?

Go on, just leave already.

Just go.

That’s a lot, huh?

[people chattering]

There’s enough catch for everyone.

It even has squid with it!

There it is!

Thank you Lord.

Give it a kiss.

No.

Oh, Jonas,

why do you look so pale?

It’s nothing. Later, okay?

Lando.

Why?

Have you noticed anything strange about Jonas?

Nothing really,

he’s just dealing with something else.

Why?

Hey Lando, keep an eye on Diana— you don’t know what she’s been up to.

Huh?

What?

Hey, Martha.

Where are you going?

What now?

Later, okay.

So many—

come on, I’ll buy all of that.

You shameless bastard!

- Martha! Martha! - Who is that?

Who are you, you animal? You’re such a flirt.

- Martha! Martha! - Damn you! Get up!

- You don’t get it. - Let go of me!

No. Please stop!

- Let go of me! - I'm sorry, Martha.

What the hell—don’t hold me back, who are you?

- Let go of me! - Who are you?

- Who are you? Stand up. - Martha.

Who are you?

Martha.

- Who is this? Who is this? huh? - Wait!

Who the hell is this?

- Wait! You don’t understand! - What?

- Let me explain. - No way, you’ve got some nerve.

- Not here. - You animal, damn you!

You bitch!

Martha!

What the hell?

Let’s not talk here.

Let me explain. Let me explain.

You don’t even contribute anything, and yet you still have the nerve.

You haven’t contributed anything.

What?

What else are you trying to explain?

Damn you.

- Damn you. - Please, let me explain.

- What? What else are you going to explain? - Calm down first—calm down.

Calm down, I know you won’t believe me.

But just like you, I’m only doing this so I can feed you.

Martha! Martha!

The woman you saw earlier is the fairy.

She’s the reason we caught so many fish these past days.

But in exchange for that...

What?

Huh?

Your body in exchange?

Isn’t that exactly what happens in your made-up story?

Huh?

And now you’re using that excuse just to sleep with another woman?

What? You can’t even answer, can you?

Because I’m right, aren't I?

That’s all you want, right?

Because what—I'm not giving it to you anymore?

Right? Not anymore?

Huh?

Is that what you want? That’s what you really want?

Stay away from that woman.

But if I don’t catch anything tomorrow, I hope you’ll believe me.

Hey, put that over there.

- There it is! - There’s no catch.

Jonas,

Jonas, Ron-ron—he’s not breathing anymore.

What happened?

- Ron-ron— - Ron-ron!

I’ll take— I’ll take him to the hospital.

No, I’ll take him. You stay here and find money to pay the hospital.

The mermaid,

the mermaid.

I said look for money for the hospital. Stop it.

Why won’t you believe me?

I need your help.

Where do I hold on?

I don’t know if what Jonas says about you is true.

I have no one else to turn to.

My son will die, Ron-ron will die— if we can’t pay.

I’m leaving it up to you.

Do whatever you want to do to me.

So we can catch a lot of fish again.

Now you know, Martha. We must do this together.

Sorry,

I didn’t trust you right away.

I wish I had trusted what you said.

It’s okay.

So many fish.

We finally have money to get Ron-ron treated.

There’s so much.

So many.

Wow.

We have money for his medicine now.

Jonas!

Jonas!

Jonas!

Pipoy?

I know you and Martha are hiding something in the hut.

Ever since I found out about that, I’ve been keeping an eye on the hut.

But last night, I saw Zaldy spying on you.

- What? - And now...

- Huh? - I saw him again, Bro.

Looks like he’s coming for you.

Are you sure?

Jonas!

Zaldy?

Zaldy! What are you planning?

You sons of bitches,

I know you’re hiding something.

Pipoy, Pipoy,

what were you telling Jonas? What is Zaldy saying?

Zaldy.

whatever you're planning, stop it now.

Follow me,

I have something to show you.

- No! - All of you.

Don't.

Zaldy.

No!

- Hurry up. - Wait, don’t!

- You’re still resisting, huh? - Jonas!

Zaldy!

Zaldy, don't!

[people murmuring]

Hurry up.

Zaldy, stop this!

Why, Martha?

Are you hiding something?

No, I’m not hiding anything here.

Nothing?

And you, Jonas—

are you hiding something here?

Hmm?

Nothing.

No! We’re not hiding anything.

Stop it already.

If there’s nothing,

then why won’t you show us the curse of the sea?

Huh?

Jonas,

what are you hiding here?

Lando,

Lando!

Don’t believe a word Zaldy says.

You don’t even know he’s also using Diana.

Then why don’t you just open it so this can all be over?

That’s right,

open it.

Well?

Are you opening it or not?

[people murmuring]

Don’t you dare hurt Jonas.

Search him.

What are you doing?

Enough!

- Nothing? - Let go.

See? There’s nothing!

Okay. There’s nothing, huh?

Let’s see.

No.

- No, don’t. - Zaldy, don’t.

No, don’t.

There’s nothing, huh?

That’s what you thought, huh?

Here, follow me.

Get in, hurry!

There.

This is the curse of the sea.

No!

Don’t!

No, don't!

Zaldy, don’t.

Don't! Don't!

Zaldy, don’t.

Since I caught her.

She’s the one who gives us all these fish.

If that’s true, then why didn’t we catch anything the other day?

Jonas?

Because she needs human flesh.

[people gasping, murmuring]

Stop it.

Please, I’m begging you.

Don't!

Please, I’m begging you.

That’s what your husband has been screwing every night?

Or maybe you’re joining them too.

- Huh? - No! No!

Stop it, Zaldy.

Jonas, is what they’re saying true?

Is that why your catch has been twice as much as ours?

Hmm?

If that’s the case,

then us too.

So we can also experience having a big catch.

- No, don’t! - No, don’t!

[people clamoring]

And from the moment the fairy was abused by the people,

she never returned to the Barrio.

Everyone remained hungry, the sea forever dry.

There would be no fish to harvest, no future to see.

Now, as I stand before waters that were once full of blessings,

I finally understand that it wasn’t the mermaid who cursed us—

it was us, people who had more fear than faith.

My son didn’t die because of fate,

but because of the fear of the people.

And if there’s one thing I’ve learned,

it’s that sometimes the real curse is not the creature we drive away,

but our own hearts that refuse to recognize,

the goodness that was being given to us.
