Bona (1980)

Bona (1980) — Lino Brocka

Philippines, DCP, 85 mins.

“To claim that Lino Brocka has influenced our cinema is not accurate. Lino Brocka is part of our DNA, part of our national psyche,” said Lav Diaz, one of the icons of contemporary Filipino cinema. Coming to international attention thanks to Pierre Rissient in the mid-1970s, Brocka’s cinema has imposed itself with disruptive force since his first appearance at Cannes’ Directors’ Fortnight in 1978.

FADIA’S TREE (2021)

(2021, DCP, documentary, 82m, Arabic and English w/English subtitles) dir. Sarah Beddington. Lebanon, Palestine, United Kingdom. While millions of birds migrate freely in the skies, Fadia, a Palestinian refugee in Lebanon, yearns for the ancestral homeland she is denied. She challenges the director, Sarah, to find an ancient mulberry tree that stands witness to her family’s existence with only inherited memories, a blind man, and a two-headed dragon as her guides. Along the way, Sarah meets with ornithologists whose observations on the homing instincts of the birds that pass through the area inadvertently reveal the unresolved problems of the region. Spanning fifteen years, this story of a friendship that stays connected across a divided land and a fragmented people adopts a bird’s eye perspective to reflect on freedom of movement, exile, and the hope of return.
