This spectacular and surreal movie from the Philippines focuses on Leonor Reyes, a former filmmaker, known for successful action movies. One day she comes across an advertisement calling for good film scripts. Among some hidden papers, she finds the script for one of her unfinished projects, which is about a young man who is to avenge the murder of his brother.
Read moreWhen someone throws a TV out of a window and hits Leonor in the head, she ends up in a coma and disappears into her own film universe kicking off a comic journey that challenges the boundaries between reality and fantasy.
Feature film debutant Martika Ramirez Escobar spent eight years making this idiosyncratic treat of a film, which in January this year finally secured its premier at the Sundance Festival. Leonor Will Never Die is a playful and uncompromising declaration of love for both the film medium and life itself.
