MISTULA (1986) - one of the pioneering independent Filipino films by Raymond
Red
The Mowelfund Film Museum Roger Garcia visits the Mowelfund Film Museum in Manila and is taken on a tour of its exhibition by founder and curator
Nick Deocampo. The tour becomes a walk through
the history of Filipino cinema, from its beginnings with Jose Nepucemeno (the Father of Filipino Cinema), through Japanese
collaboration during the Second World War, the pioneering studio of LVN created by Dona Sisang, the masters of modern Filipino
cinema Lino Brocka and Ishmael Bernal, right up to the birth of the independent Filipino cinema of today that was created
by Nick Deocampo and Raymond Red.
