  • At Last, Filipino Cinema in Portugal July 10, 2013/ Tiago Gutierrez Marques
    At Last, Filipino Cinema in Portugal July 10, 2013/ Tiago Gutierrez Marques A scene from Brillante Mendoza's "Captive" (Source: filmfilia.com) I didn't know anything about Filipino cinema until very recently, as it’s practically unheard of in Portugal where most people don't even know where the Philippines is on the world map. But there are signs of change. In 2010 a Portuguese cultural association called “Zero em Comportamento” (Zero Behavior), which is dedicated to the dissemination of movies that fall outside the mainstream commercial cinema, organized a four-day retrospective showing in Lisbon of movies directed by acclaimed Filipino director Brillante Mendoza. This also included a masterclass on independent filmmaking in the Philippines, for cinema students and professionals (http://zeroemcomportamento.wordpress.com/arquivo/bmendoza/). This rare opportunity got me very excited, and particularly my Portuguese father, who went to see almost all of the eight movies. At the end of each showing, the audience could directly ask Brillante Mendoza their questions. And just a few months ago, one of Mendoza's latest films, “Captive,” was released in commercial theaters in Lisbon and Porto (Portugal's second city) alongside the usual Hollywood blockbusters. I couldn't believe that we had reached a new milestone for Filipino cinema in Portugal. Director Brillante Mendoza won the Palme d'Or at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival for "Kinatay." (Source: Bauer Griffin) “Captive” is about the kidnapping of a group of tourists by the fearsome Abu Sayaf group from a resort in Honda Bay, in Palawan. They are taken to Mindanao.
