BAYANING 3RD WORLD at IndieSine


Special One-Day screening of Mike de Leon's Bayaning 3rd World at IndieSine

Daluyan Awardee Mike de Leon created a masterpiece six long years ago. The few people who have seen it still remember de Leon's post-modern take on a bygone obsession of the centennial fever: the great Filipino hero, Jose Rizal.

Mike de Leon puts his characters, a director (Ricky Davao) and a writer (Cris Villanueva) on the verge of a creating a great Rizal film, on a historical adventure that unravels the various stories, true and false, about the controversial national hero. How you may ask, is it possible to make a compelling film within a film about a textbook case like Jose Rizal? "Bayaning 3rd World" both educates and dazzles under one of the greatest Filipino filmmakers of all time.

The Independent Filmmakers Cooperative (IFC) is proud to present a special ONE-DAY SCREENING of Bayaning 3rd World at IndieSine, Robinsons Galleria on January 25. Bayaning 3rd World will have five screenings on that day.
