  • On Lav Diaz‟S a Lullaby to the Sorrowful Mystery
    ―Textual Mobilities: Diaspora, Migration, Transnationalism and Multiculturalism‖ | Lullaby of Diasporic Time: On Lav Diaz‟s A Lullaby to the Sorrowful Mystery Christian Jil R. Benitez Ateneo de Manila University Philippines [email protected] Abstract Lav Diaz is a Filipino independent filmmaker notable as a key figure in the contemporary slow cinema movement. Of his oeuvre, one of the longest is A Lullaby to the Sorrowful Mystery (Filipino: Hele sa Higawang Hapis), a 2016 epic film that runs for 8 hours, orchestrating narratives derived from what are conveniently sung as mythology (i.e., Jose Rizal‘s El filibusterismo and Philippine folklore) and history (i.e., Philippine history and artifacts). The movie competed in the 66th Berlin International Film Festival, where it won the Alfred Bauer Prize. This success has earned Diaz‘s the spotlight in the Filipino mainstream culture, enabling the film to be distributed to and showcased in mainstream platforms, albeit primarily garnering attention from the Filipino audience for its runtime and international attention. The movement of the film, as a text, from the local Philippines toward the international and returning home, incurs in it a textuality that disrupts the phenomenology of time diasporically, scatteringly: that as much as its 8-hour languor ―opens new perspective in the cinematic arts‖ according to the international rendition of this time, it is also the 8-hour whose value in the Philippine time is that of a day‘s labor, and thus the exoticization of its cinematic experience as a ―challenge,‖ having to endure an entire working day of slow cinematography. This diaspora of time is of no cacophony; on the contrary, it is the lullaby, sorrowful and mysterious, that finally slows Diaz in to become a filmmaker attuned to both the spaces of the local and the international.

  • Phillippine Noir
    Change of Focus—12 may adadol ingawanij PHILIPPINE NOIR The Cinema of Lav Diaz he filipino director Lav Diaz has created a monumental body of work over the past two decades: some sixteen feature films—interspersed with as many miscellaneous shorts, documentaries and film-essays—shot almost entirely in black Tand white, with running times generally somewhere between four and ten hours. Produced on a largely artisanal scale throughout the archi- pelago of the Philippines, at one level they represent the everyday troubles and resilience of the Filipino people, the present-day plight of the country and the burden of its past. Although he is a well-known figure there, Diaz’s films have been screened only sporadically in the Philippines itself, the product not only of political constraints—a num- ber have been banned—but also of working beyond the bounds of an entrenched national film industry. Internationally, Diaz’s reputation has grown since Norte, the End of History (2013)—a 4-hour, freewheeling adaptation of Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment set in the contempo- rary Philippines—appeared at Cannes, with prizes and acclaim garnered at Locarno, Berlin and Venice. His oeuvre, though, remains little under- stood. On the global circuit, he is regularly acclaimed as a master of ‘slow cinema’. In interviews, Diaz rarely fails to correct the record: ‘it’s not slow cinema; it’s cinema.’1 First coined by the French critic Michel Ciment who identified an emerg- ing ‘cinema of slowness’ in a talk at the 2003 San Francisco International Film Festival, ‘slow cinema’ has been consolidated in Anglophone film writing as a designation for a range of austere, minimalist films typified by use of the long take.2 Directors who have been classified as practi- tioners alongside Diaz include Nuri Bilge Ceylan, Jia Zhangke, Pedro new left review 130 july aug 2021 53 54 nlr 130 Costa and Tsai Ming-Liang, while the category has also been applied retrospectively, with Ozu, Bresson, Tarkovsky and others enlisted into a genealogy of slowness.

  • HEAD Genève Département Cinéma Faire Face / to Face up Colloque
    — HEAD Genève Département Cinéma Faire face / To face up Colloque International Lav Diaz 11–12.10.2019 Auditoire HEAD, Boulevard James-Fazy 15, 1201 Genève Lav Diaz’s cinematic work is deeply ingrained in Filipino culture. It is infused with the political vicissitudes that the country suffers and is moulded by the consequences of the natural disasters that lay waste to the archipelago. His unusually long shots are bound with the fate of those who oppose the system, he marginals and others who are left on the sidelines. Bearing witness to resistance, building a collective memory, sharing waiting times and drawing cinematic tombs for the disappeared who leftSeason of the Devil & The Woman and the tortured, Lav Diaz’s tragic frescoes stand tall against silence, amnesia and repression. Underpinned by extreme state violence (martial Diaz, © Lav law, extrajudicial executions, death squads), his films explicitly highlight tyranny and the ferociousness of history. The exploratory filmmaker’s long-lasting aesthetics transpose places of exile (remote forests, the outskirts of the city, spoiled land) into areas of life and suffering, daily landscapes where men reside, take shelter, withdraw and sometimes save themselves. With humanist rage, Lav Diaz confronts the political, ecological and ethical disaster, venturing to address what men do to other men. L’œuvre cinématographique de Lav Diaz est chevillée au corps du peuple philippin, pétrie des vicissitudes politiques qui secouent le pays, traversée par les conséquences des cataclysmes climatiques qui dévastent l’archipel. Ses plans aux durées peu communes s’arriment aux destinées des opposants, des marginaux et des laissés pour compte.
