The Story of the Filipino: Lav Diaz

Artists often let their works speak for themselves but in this episode, filmmaker Lav Diaz dives deep into his core and shares what inspires him to tell stories through film.

Direk Lav Diaz, I discovered yesterday about your film here on KZbin and I say I really likes it. I like the background style of the film which is black and white. Count on me, I'm a fan now. Keep on doing films like this like Ang babaeng humayo. All I can say is maganda tlga ang story.

Magaganda films niya. Mga malikhaing obra mula kay sir Lav Diaz. Di nga lang pinapanood ng karamihan 😢

Boring mga pelikula nito. Malalim pero boring. 11 hour film? Who would watch that?

Kaming mga mahilig talaga sa movies, gusto mo kasi yung Vice Ganda movies at Vivamax eh,

I haven't seen his films yet but based on this short introduction/interview, he sounds interesting. The movie wouldn't be recognized at the Locarno Festival if he or his work isn't. Yung comment niya na "Kahit isang tao lang ang mano-od ng kanyang 11-hr na película, OK lang sa kanya", means he doesn't care of who approves of his films so long as he's given it his best.

what are some examples of movies/hobbies/interests youre into that you dont consider boring?

Do some push ups, who's gonna carry the logs, who's gonna carry the boats? boring? Get down and do some!!
