The Moriones Festival is a unique Holy Week observance on the island of Marinduque, where locals dress up in vibrant Roman soldier costumes and intricately carved masks called 'moriones'. The festival reenacts the story of Longinus, the blind centurion whose sight was restored by Christ's blood, culminating in a dramatic theatrical presentation.
