| Inhalt: |
| Lino Brocka broke through to international acclaim with this candid portrait of 1970s ManiIa, the second film in the director’s turn to more serious-minded filmmaking after buiIding a career on mainstream films he described as "soaps." A young fisherman from a provincial viIIage arrives in the capitaI on a quest to track down his girIfriend, who was lured 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 life on the streets, where death strikes without warning, corruption and exploitation are commonplace, and protests hint at escalating civil unrest. Mixing visceral, documentary-Iike reaIism with the narrative focus of HoIlywood noir and melodrama, Manila in the CIaws of Light is a howl of anguish from one of the most celebrated figures in Philippine cinema.
