Glimpses of daily life with the dead at Manila North Cemetery.
Due to poverty and population density, an estimated 10.000+ people are literally living with the dead at Manila North Cemetery in Metro Manila. The owners of the graves at the cemetery allow people to live among, and on the graves – and even inside the mausoleums – if they keep these clean.
