What is this project and who is it by?

"MAHAL" is a short film about a married couple reminicing on how they fell in love by telling the story of how they met to their young daughter in 2 versions. One version being spectacular and action packed, and the other being slow, but honest.
This film is created by Filipino student filmmaker, Xandra Yugto, working with fellow students trying to bring the story of how her parents met in the Philippines into short film form.
This project is a surprise gift to her parents, who have inspired her to become the storyteller that she is today.
