Ina Fhang-Od is already 93 years old and still doing this form of art. We hope that she will still live longer and passes her talent to her two mentee. Long live ina.
Awesome documentary! Good to know Fang-Od is still going strong. I was fortunate enough to visit Buscalan in 2010 and was tattoo'd by Fang-Od herself, but here a few details were added to the meaning of the tattoos that I managed to miss so this is really helpful. I feel very honored!
Thanks for this documentary. How in the heck we lost this kind of tradition especially in the Visayas islands where we are known as tough Warriors in the past? You can see these tradition in the whole Pacific islands from Hawaii down south. This is not only a Kalinga tradition. It's the whole islands of the Philippines.
i have been there last week jan 25/26'2017.. i had my tattoo from Apo. all i can say is.. simple life. youll see happiness in their eyes. its like heaven, youll find PEACE...
I was lucky enough to get a tattoo by Whang Od just last month. She decided the design (python)and the placement of it herself. I felt so honored and lucky to be able to receive a tattoo from her. I spent 3days in the village and the people there were so hospitable and accommodating. It was a humbling experience and the trip to get there was an adventure in itself.
I went back first week of July. There is no exact address. She lives in Buscalan, Kalinka Province, Philippines. Ohayami Bus makes the trip from Manily to Bontoc. From Bontoc its a local bus trip from about 3 hours...then it´s a trail from about 1,5 hour walking. In Buscalan everybody can bring you to Fang-Od...Stay there for at least 2 nights...you can find Ohayami Bus in the internet and even book online
No more Cable tour bus, to be able to go to Wang-od, take Ohayami Bus, near UST, Lacson Ave., Destination Manila to Bontoc, then take jeep Bontoc to Tinglayan, there you can see Wang-od.
Hey man great video, I am planning to go there this coming September to get a tattoo after I visit Sagada....any pointers on getting to Tinglayan? Also, was there any place to stay?
Idk how I got here but now I want another tattoo from this incredible lady. But I'd have to travel to the Philippines. I'm in. I gotta do some research how to get there.
Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to come back there anytime soon as I am now living in Europe. But if you want to go there with less hassle, you can book a tour with Feelgood Traveler. Those are the guys who brought us there. Check them out on Facebook.
Loreta Cruzada I just uploaded some videos of our journey to Buscalan. You can check it out to get a glimpse of what's in store for you when you go there.
amazing documentary you guys! I love how the intro with modern tattoo techniques and macklemore in the bg contrasts the kalinga tradition you covered in the rest of the documentary. Mad respect for Fine Arts students who experience the culture by living with the kalinga for a few days! May I ask what song plays at around 1:36? thank you!
From Baguio get a ride going to Tabuk City. GL trans near SM Baguio or Greenland at Dangwa station , the from Tabuk look for a ride going to tinglayan. Place to stay I think they can offer a place for you to stay because tourist are now coming to see apo Fand Od and her tattoo arts.
cardigans98 i think at 2mins its a Kalinga folk song. wanna know its title too. brings me nostalgia it was being played while we rode the bus to Buscalan. thanks in advance
Good day! Gusto ko lang po malaman kung saang school to? I mean yung thesis? Gusto ko po kasi mabasa para mailagay sa related study namin para sa thesis namin :) Im a tourism student.
I'm sure the tattoos of women were more than just physical attraction. In my opinion, tattoos from an ancient stand point, would be more spiritual and/or meaning deep meanings.

Mike Litoris hindi ko binabaliwala ang tradisyon nang sino pa man. Ang sa akin ay paalaala lamang para sa mga taong naniniwala sa kasabihan sa Bibliya kung talagang naniniwala sila. Kung mas mahalaga pa sa sino man na sundin ang mga tradisyon na ginawa ng tao kaysa sa utos ng Panginoon, ay sundin nila ang gusto nilang gawin. Kung mas matimbang naman ang paniniwala nila sa Panginoon ay sundin nila ang Panginoon. Sabi nga ng Panginoon, “you cannot serve two masters, for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.” Matthew 6:24
Sir mawalang galang nalang po. Christian po ako at napaka taas po ng faith ko kay God. Pero hindi naman po porket meron akong tattoo eh hindi kona po sinusunod yung mga utos nya. Ps po yung tatoo po na sinasabi ko it was made by Apo Whang od and hindi po kung kanilanino lang at hindi ko po iyun pinagsisiha. At bagkos ay pinagmamalaki ko.

She was still alive and kicking when I went there last November (About a year ago).
Garry Malalo-an
thanks Garry
She was still alive and well first week of July 2016
Koen Van den Broek so she passed away
what you mean, Jose Arellano? I don't think so...in the first week of July 2016 she was very well alive and kicking
Buhi pa siya?
Till now

bakit mo binabalewala ang isa sa mga nanganganib na tradisyon at tribo ng bansa natin kumpara sa relihyon ng mga nagsakop at nagpahirap sa atin.
Eliyahu 66 napansin ko lang, sa lahat ata ng vid ni apo andun ka 😊

Sir mawalang galang nalang po.
Christian po ako at napaka taas po ng faith ko kay God. Pero hindi naman po porket meron akong tattoo eh hindi kona po sinusunod yung mga utos nya.
Ps po yung tatoo po na sinasabi ko it was made by Apo Whang od and hindi po kung kanilanino lang at hindi ko po iyun pinagsisiha. At bagkos ay pinagmamalaki ko.
Kung gusto mo galangin paniniwala mo. Galangin mo paniniwala ng iba.
