Let us explore some movies from the motherland!
This final film I am going to mention is the ultimate in my Filipino film selection snobbery. Selected for Toronto, New York and Cannes Festivals and nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for Best Foreign Film in 2015 is 4 HOUR Norte: the End of History. This film is currently sitting on my bookshelf and awaiting a situation when 4 hours of heavy drama about moral dilemma is the only cure.
