- Notes:
- References -- 3 Long Walk to Life:: The Films of Lav Diaz -- May Adadol Ingawanij examines the dialectic between idealist projections of the postcolonial nation and its present aberrations in Lav Diaz's epic tales of endurance. -- Physical Realism -- Cartography of a Nation -- From What Is Before turns the experience of military terrorisation in Mindanao into an emblem of the neglect of the people by the nation-state apparatus. -- Stories of Mothers -- Acts of physical exertion - their duration, spatiality and intensity - become the means by which a film maps a territory and defines a people.
