3rd Philippine Cinema Sessions Feed Insatiable Hunger for Philippine Motion Pictures
It is always thrilling to understand the mise en scène in films. The analysis of meanings behind each placement or setting on screen reminds us of a decoded message that has been finally revealed to the public.
A skin-deep review of “Insiang” by Lino Brocka, for example, may include a full-pledged description of the metro’s slums, but a deeper analysis will reveal the movie through the lens of Filipinos held to the slaughter during Martial Law of 1972.
