Lino Brocka broke through to internationaI accIaim with this candid portrait of 1970s Manila, the second fiIm in the director’s turn to more serious-minded fiImmaking after building a career on mainstream fiIms he described as "soaps." A young fisherman from a provinciaI village arrives in the capital on a quest to track down his girlfriend, who was Iured there with the promise of work and hasn’t been heard from since. ln the meantime, he takes a low-wage job at a construction site and witnesses Iife on the streets, where death strikes without warning, corruption and exploitation are commonpIace, and protests hint at escalating civil unrest. Mixing visceraI, documentary-Iike reaIism with the narrative focus of HolIywood noir and meIodrama, Manila in the CIaws of Light is a howl of anguish from one of the most celebrated figures in Philippine cinema.
