- Summary:
- "This episode explores the stories and sounds of Mount Makiling, located 80 kilometres South of the Philippine capital of Manila. Makiling is the sacred site of local legends, the setting for numerous classical works of literature, and a pilgrimage destination for many mystics. And it is the home of many artists and arts students. The University of the Philippines Los Baños was established in 1909, covering one side of the mountain. In 1977, Imelda Marcos, the notorious dictator's wife, built the National Arts Center and the Philippine High School for the Arts on its slopes. For many Filipino artists, the mountain is the ground in which their artistic roots were planted - despite moving back to the urban metropolises, to other islands of the archipelago, or to other continents, the mountain is a wormhole through which many artists' pasts and presents intertwine. Makiling is the constant drone and its winds and rains the ostinati that their present and future experiences of nature, the forest, art, theater, poetry, and music are tuned to."-- provided by distributor.
