Abstract / Summary

I did a documentry on the shrine of mangupeer and focus was mostly on it's religious sentiments towards the crocodiles who are worshipped there. Moreover, different aspects of the shrine is shown such as how religion is used as a way of doing business within the shrine and its followers are bribed in the name of chasity and holiness. The documentry also explores different sects of vendors such as tea makers, jewerally sellers and food stalls; all to showcase their financial difficulties. A perspective of the people who come to worship these creatures are also taken to build a narrative around what goes on there.
