Chocolate Meat

A short film about everyone's favorite misnomer.
February 17, 2012

Joseph, a young, Pilipino-American father, tries to connect with Hunter, his half-Pilipino son, during a weekend visit. Joseph tries to utilize different aspects of Pilipino culture, including an exotic Pilipino stew made out of pig's blood named dinuguan (also known as 'chocolate meat'), in order to gain Hunter's interest.
