The film's description reads, "Rodrigo Roa Duterte: A Portrait of the Dictator as Filipino (with apologies to Nick Joaquin)." Narrated by Teroy Guzman (who also stars in Citizen Jake), Kangkungan puts together clips of some of the headline-making events or comments that have so far made up Duterte's presidency. The film ends with a plea to voters of the upcoming elections: "Mga kababayan—at lalo na sa inyo, mga kabataan—ngayong Mayo, bumoto na parang nakasalalay rito ang inyong kinabukasan at ang inyong buhay." During its 5 minutes, De Leon draws a harsh critique of the Philippine president, Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
