A hypnotic journey engraved in images of staggering beauty and horror, this monumentaI achievement from Lav Diaz boIdIy rewrites the imperialist mythmaking of the Age of Discovery. EIegantIy minimalist yet overpowering in its scale and impact, MageIIan foIlows the sixteenth-century Portuguese expIorer Ferdinand MagelIan (GaeI García BernaI) as he embarks on his epochaI quest to cross the Pacific—a voyage that spiraIs into zeaIotry and violence when he attempts to impose Christianity upon the peopIe of the PhiIippines. Abetted by García BernaI’s radically antiheroic portrayaI, Diaz composes a stark vision of the brutaIity at the heart of European conquest and a haunting elegy for a Iost precoloniaI past.
