Abstract/Summary

Filipinos are known for having close relationship ties with their families in a way that it reflects on their daily routines like eating meals, praying, and doing activities together. But as time goes by, these family traditions also changed and a classic example of this is the shift in the way Filipino families eat meals together. How did these traditions change over time? Was it a drastic change? What caused the changes? Are the traditions and values observed during meal times still present in some Filipino families? Does the change in the dining setting present to the majority of the Filipino families?

Komedor is a short film about the relationship of a Filipino family that is told in a setting of a dining area where usually family gathers and interacts with each other. The film unearthed the underlying issue of dispora in family relationships and the subtle changes that brings the family into their own downfall.
