"Living with the Dead: Manila's North Cemetery"

After facing unemployment outside, Rodolfo "Rody" Villanueva was able to find a job as a caretaker and gardener for the United Spanish American War Veterans' memorial inside the cemetery. Caretakers form the other half of this unique society and are paid a salary to guard and maintain a family's mausoleum or plot in the wealthier areas of the cemetery. Rody has lived here for five years and spends his days maintaining the grounds of this small site.
