Wayfinder
Stories of intentional living.
A Manalo Pictures Original Series
A series about how people live with intention.
Wayfinder is a documentary series profiling founders, makers, practitioners, and cultural stewards who navigate their lives with purpose, craft, and care. Each episode is a quiet portrait—an intimate look at the choices, practices, and values that shape how people live and work in alignment.
Wayfinder doesn’t prescribe a way of living.
It simply explores the many ways people build meaningful lives—on their own terms.
