Note: This video is intended for mature audiences. (2007, 86 min., video, Tagalog with English subtitles, directed by Brillante Mendoza, Philippines) From its shocking opening scene of a police raid on a squatters' community to its irony-drenched climax at a political rally, this film is an adrenalin-fueled sprint through Manila's underworld and an inventive piece of digital filmmaking.
