The theme of The Mats covers family and Filipino values. The closeness of family has always been a major Filipino value - respect for the elders and parents, the stability of parents' marriage, equality of siblings, so on and so forth.The Mats dissects these when it paints a picture of the relationships of the various members of the family. When (spoiler alert!) Mr. Angeles brings out mats even for his children who are no longer with them, it shows that the love between members of a Filipino family transcends even death.The mats were the ideal archetype to use here because they are carefully handcrafted and woven, the threads and strips tied tightly together. A Filipino family is like a mat or banig, with its members bound tightly together too.
