Manila Exposed is an adult-oriented video series that spanned multiple volumes throughout the early to mid-2000s.

Methodology and Ethics

• Participant consent: Written and verbal consent recorded; faces sometimes obscured to prevent harm.
• Reciprocity: Subjects receive printed photo books, community screenings, and small stipends.
• Fact-checking: Cross-referenced interviews with municipal records, NGO reports, and academic studies.
• Safety protocols: Crew trained for urban risks; local fixers and community liaisons engaged.

Independent researchers have attempted to track down the individuals filmed. Most have died, moved, or refuse to speak. One exception is "Aling Puring" from Volume 2, who was located in 2018 living in a government housing project. Her reaction to being shown the footage? A shrug. "Ganon talaga. Hindi ko alam na may camera. Pero totoo naman lahat 'yun." (That’s how it was. I didn’t know there was a camera. But all of that was true.) manila exposed vols 1 to 9
