SUMMARY:Filipiñana
DESCRIPTION:Tee girl Isabel feels strangely drawn to Dr. Palanca\, the president of the country club where she works. However\, after piecing together a violent picture of what lies beneath the club’s pristine surface\, she realizes that what began as an innocent infatuation is actually rooted in a sinister shared history. \nDisplaying an extraordinary command of his surreal and unnerving visual language\, first-time filmmaker Rafael Manuel adapts his award-winning 2020 short film of the same name to chilling effect. Manuel plumbs the depths of Filipino identity and national consciousness to uncover ominous fragments and cracks that defy picture-perfect unity. Through a stylized\, colorful approach lensed with care and precision by cinematographer Xenia Patricia\, Manuel takes us into a world where violence and control are exerted with the subtle flick of a wrist or tip of a hat. Painting a scathing portrait of class disparities and post-colonial power structures in ways that are both quiet and unsettling\, FILIPIÑANA announces the arrival of an accomplished writer-director who unflinchingly confronts his country’s past\, present\, and future. —Ana Souza\, Sundance Film Festival guide
