“Everything changed after St Joseph came” is a line you can perhaps expect from a priest, but not from an owner of one of the quirkiest manufactures in the Philippines. Unless you are talking to the boss of Tml Holy Crafts, a company devoted to the production of statues and Christian memorabilia. Thanks to Pope Francis’ public comments and admiration, various representations of St Joseph (3 apiece) were the craze of the recent years, and workers at Tml were swamped with high-volume orders of the saint’s figurines. In “Divine Factory”, Joseph Mangat, a Filipino American director, takes a look behind the inner workings of the business, and witnesses how the sacred mixes with the profane behind the walls of the eponymous factory. Although the starting premise feels quite confrontational, the end product is an observational documentary which decides not to go for the easiest of blows. It still lacks, however,...

Khavn’s experimentation with every notion associated with film and essentially entertainment was bound to bring him eventually to a movie that functions like a stage play. However, as usual in his works, this is just one of the many elements included in “The Trials of Mr Serapio”, which is based on Paul Dumol’s classic one-act play, considered by many as the first modernist play.
The movie starts with a man playing his guitar and singing by a rather busy street, with the quality of the film in this sequence, which is actually repeated throughout the movie, being purposefully bad. The next sequence brings us to the “stage play” part, where the aforementioned man is revealed to be Mr Serapio, who has been arrested and is now subjected to a trial by two interrogators and a judge, who can only be described as caricatures. Serapio does not know the reason he is being tried,...

Khavn is the sorcerer of digital cinema, enchanting his way through the Filipino ether. He is an artist, a poet, a script writer, a punk rock musician and an excellent pianist. All his films are ‘This Is Not A Film By Khavn’, an ironic nod to the nature of film-making itself, a collaborative process. His irony is to raise an eyebrow at the idea of the auteur, though his films have a distinctive signature of ‘This Is Not A Film By Khavn’! Through his wit, Khavn is a thinker within cinema, exploring its limitations and potentials, making the most of small budgets and a small crew, within his compact cinematic experiments. Khavn is a director of short films, documentaries, as well feature films! “Squatterpunk” is one of his micro budget documentary films showcasing his off-the-cuff filmmaking style. There is an improvisational feel to this movie, but there is a well...

Expanded from a 6 minutes short with the same name, “Kommander Kulas” is one of the most formulaic films by the Filipino director, although its experimental nature is undoubted.
The film begins in unusual (not for Khavn) fashion, with narration on black screen explaining the myth of Kommander Kulas, followed by images of a painting, before the narrator begins addressing the audience. Then come the credits, then the actual film, which follows a repetitive, but highly unusual narrative.
In that fashion, sequences of Kommander Kulas riding his destitute friend, Carabao, a water buffalo, through the forests and fields, with the narration eventually revealing that he has lost his heart and is in search for it. These sequences are followed by a series of vignettes whose artful grotesqueness can only be compared with their blasphemous concept and the preposterous narration, usually by someone of different sex than the person featuring in the segment.

Under the aegis of the dictatorial regime in the 1970s, the Ministry of Human Settlements introduced a shelter program that would fulfill basic housing needs. The housing project called the Bagong Lipunan (New Society) Improvement of Sites and Services (Bliss) was envisioned as a self-sustaining program that would help foster the development of its residents while serving as a model urban community. Former First Lady Imelda Marcos, who led the ministry in 1979, planned for the settlement to house 50 to 100 families in a two-and-a-half hectare area (Lico 2008). Despite the instability of the times, its offerings were promising for both low and middle-income families alike. The residents were to receive subsidies, livelihood opportunities and services, and the formation of a close-knit community was facilitated by inviting members to participate in group activities promoted by duly registered community associations. The physical dwellings were standard building types comprised of several floors, each building consisting of 16 to 32 units,...

Since we dealt with the monochrome ones somea few weeks before, the most impressively colored films were a path we had to take. Essentially, a number of directors considered masters have always invested on intense coloring for their films, resulting in audiovisual poems. As usually, with a focus on diversity, we present 30 of those films, in alphabetical order.

A 6+ minutes short that eventually became a feature (as is the case with many of Khavn’s works) “Kommander Kulas” is another film of his that seems to defy every cinematic convention.
The narrative begins in repetitive fashion, with sequences of a man who is probably Kommander Kulas, riding his water buffalo in the jungle, at a leisure pace, while a soft voice narrates repeatedly that he had a restless night, in which he dreamt he was a giant cockroach. As soon as the narration ends, a number of grotesque, to the point of being blasphemous shots appear, including a nun with a butchering knife, a dead, naked woman and an almost completely naked man who only wears stockings and a bra. As Kulas reaches an urban setting, the narration changes after and reveals that the Kommander has lost his heart and is in search for it, with the camera...

Khavn said about this film that it was inspired by the magic realism of Italian author Anna Maria Ortese and is populated by creatures of Philippine myths—duwende, kapre, manananggal, tiyanak. “I wanted to create a meta-fable, an otherworldly questioning eye… make the silly sensible and the mad logical,” he told the Philippine Daily Inquirer.
The film begins in black and white, as a very well-dressed woman is ascending some stairs in a European setting, in order to reach the bank of the river, with the camera following her closely from behind and on the side for the most part. An intense piano track accompanies her steps. Two stanzas from a poem by Alejandro G. Abadilla, the father of modern Filipino poetry, presented on black screen (in silent movies-style) function as transition to the second part, where a number of unlikely creatures emerge from every corner, taking their place among the “regular” humans.

Albert Banzon is a Filipino, multi-awarded cinematographer. After graduating from college, he took a series of workshops from the Mowelfund Film Institute. From there, he met Bahag-Hari, an Mfi Alumni cinematographer, who hired him as a gaffer to work for Lav Diaz, in essence starting his career. Currently, he has more than 115 credits to his name, having cooperated with directors like Timmy Harn, Shireen Seno and Adolfo Alix Jr, although his most frequent collaborator is Khavn.
On the occasion of our #TheKhavnProject, we speak with him about his career, the differences between working for TV and movies, the changes the industry has undergone and of course, Khavn.

Edsa is an acronym referring to Epifanio de los Santos Avenue, the longest highway in Manila and the whole of the Philippines, and also the central stage of the 1986 revolution that ended the 20-year dictatorship of President Ferdinand Marcos. Using the events as a starting point (through actual footage that are repeated throughout the movie), Khavn presents a political satire/musical that aims to highlight that nothing ever changes in the political setting of the country.
Of course, this allegory is by no means generic. Khavn places his story in 2030, in the Ek-Ek-Ek democracy, a fictional country that functions as a metaphor for the Philippines, where a number of leaders that are soon proved puppets in the hands of a mysterious organization called the Hukbalaka, succeed one another until leadership falls into the hands of the stupidest of them all, Three Eyes.

Despite his rather extreme approach, Khavn’s majority of feature films are both political and socially conscious. “Desaparadiso”, which premiered in the 44th edition of Rotterdam, does not stray away from this rule, since it deals with the dark period of the Marcos regime in the Philippines (1972-1986) and particularly the many disappearances of citizens that took place during his time, some of which ended up in prison getting tortured, while many others were never found.
The film is split in three parts, with the last two following (somewhat) the “Ibong Adarna“, the 16th-century Filipino epic poem. The first part presents footage from the period and the events that took place under piano music. After a bit, the music changes to reggae, and the footage to that of scenes of movies from the era, with the combination highlighting the circumstances of the era quite clearly.
The second part, which is in black-and-white,...

In a short video of about 1.5 minutes, the audience is confronted with a male figure who is obviously driven by anger and has a mission. Khavn conceives his short film “Kontra Madiaga” as a kind of application video. The main character introduces himself as Kontra Madiaga, he comes from the darkest depths of Manila, condemned to murder people for all eternity.
Khavn fades in the text on black boards like in a silent movie, it seems to be typewritten. The text fragments are also combined as in a blackmail letter, slightly oblique to each other. This gives the film a somewhat old-fashioned touch, a retro aesthetic, which is also evident in the images of Kontra Madiaga in action. Khavn refrains from using special effects and concentrates on simple means, which give the video the style of a documentary film and thus make it especially impressive. The decision to only hint...

Basketball is quite popular in the Philippines and basing a film upon it is definitely not a bad idea. Timmy Harn did so, but extended his narrative in order to include a number of important local subjects, including black magic, drugs, racism, and colonialism. Let us take things from the beginning though.

The film then jumps to some years later, where Michael Jordan Ulili (the aforementioned infant) is struggling to make ends meet, having to deal with a coach that does not allow him to play, instead promoting his own son, and a guardian mother, Rochelle, who does not stop nagging him,...

Khavn’s opinion about the police force has always been quite eloquent, as for example in the following segment of the interview he gave to Amp for Alipato: The Very Brief Life of an Ember” :
[Is the fact that the policemen frequent a bar in a pigsty a clear comment on the police in general? What is your opinion of the way police functions in the Philippines?
Khavn: “Let’s not insult pigs—I like them a lot. But yes, the non-pigsty-wallowing police is the exception rather than the rule. The police is the corrupt muscle of politicians and the ruling class. This is the subject of my next film, “Bamboo Dogs”.”]
“Bamboo Dogs” deals with an incident revolving around the Kuratong Baleleng gang, an organized crime syndicate in the Philippines that once was an anti-communist vigilante group.
On May 18, 1995 at around 5 a.m., 11 persons were shot and killed on Commonwealth Avenue, Quezon City. Hours later, Pnp Chief Supts. Panfilo Lacson, Jewel Canson and Romeo Acop, and Sr. Supt. Francisco Zubia held a press conference. With then-pnp boss Recaredo Sarmiento, they...

Prolific Filipino helmer Adolfo Borinaga Alix Jr.’s latest big-screen endeavor “Mystery of the Night” is a supernatural folktale so beautifully atmospheric that one can almost overlook its escalating problems — for a while, at least. But this saga of an allegorical rape of Mother Nature by Western civilization, avenged by her forest she-creatures, eventually grows too humorlessly turgid to be as impactful as intended.
In the end, it’s an old-school Philippines cinema exercise in women weeping for the sins visited upon them by men, even if here the horror trappings allow for some payback. Those genre elements, as well as the film’s visual beauty, will be its major lure to non-Tagalog-speaking viewers.
After a brief flash-forward to climactic events, and opening credits that, in shadow-play style (performed by El Gamma Penumbra) illustrate the mythology of vengeful forest spirits (aka Aswang of Filipino folklore), the story begins in a...

In 2025, the Kostka gang, a group of kids with nicknames like Pork Chop, Bull Dog, Snowman, McAbnormal and J. Blo, aged from 5 to 15, terrorize Manila, robbing and killing everyone in their path. After a shootout with the police, one of their members dies, and their leader, nicknamed Boss, decides that they should rob a bank, in order to change their lives. The robbery however, goes horribly wrong, with a number of the gang’s members ending up dead and Boss in prison.
After a kind of comic strip, that shows his time in prison, the story jumps forward to 2053, when he is released and reunites with the remaining members. However, the money from the robbery were never found, and the members expect him to have it. Furthermore, someone seems to kill the remaining ones, one by one.

In “Alipato”, Khavn’s previous feature, the Filipino director presented children as the victims and perpetrators of violence to highlight the consequences of violence in the urban setting. This time, he uses a child and an infant in a similar, but much more toned down way, to highlight the consequences of war and particularly the aftermath of the battle of Balangiga in 1901, when Brigadier General Robert P. Hughes, in order to retaliate for the death of about 48 members of the Us army, gave orders in the style of “Take no prisoners” and “burn them all”. What followed is considered as one of the first genocides of the 20th century, and was the first time that American officers and troops were officially charged with what we would now call war crimes.
