An international jury overview the sections of short films coming from all over the world. We prefer documentaries which succeed in representing the complexity of reality and discover in a new way its sensible and perturbing aspects on the same time accentuating the ambivalent and enigmatic status of reality in avoiding sterotypes and simplifing conclusions.

Tondo, Beloved - To What Are The Poor Born ? (Tundong Magiliw: Pasaan Isinisilang Siyang Mahirap?)

Jewel Maranan

2012 | 1:17:00

A mother of three sons living in Tondo is now pregnant with her fourth. Their living space, ringing with the various sounds of the nearby Manila port, jars the senses as it is transformed into cinematic time. An exploration of neocolonialism in the oldest port area slums of Manila. It reveals a historic oppression encumbered on people's entire life cycles — birth, youth, adulthood and death. Where the cycle must lead both a people and a nation is the question of resistance pending at large.
