RETROSPEKTIVE LAV DIAZ 24.10.-1.11.2008 in Berlin
Published October 4, 2008


---

    In cooperation with Deutsche Film- und Fernsehakademie Berlin (dffb) and Freunde der deutschen Kinemathek / Arsenal we’re going to present a retrospective on Philippine filmmaker LAV DIAZ. The line-up includes his latest work “Melancholia” (2008), which was just awarded the Grand Prize-Orizzonti at the Venice Film Festival. His works will be shown from october 24th-november 1st in the cinemas of Arsenal and dffb. LAV DIAZ will be in Berlin himself for Q&A and a lecture series for students of the dffb.

    LAV DIAZ is one of the most significant current Philippine filmmakers. His use of digital technology has inspired artists of the younger generation like John Torres and Khavn De La Cruz, who presented their works at this year’s ASIAN HOT SHOTS BERLIN and Berlinale Forum. Look forward to a great cinematic autumn… or to put it into the words of Lav’s Venice acceptance speech: “Long live Philippine cinema!”
