Lav Diaz talks about the amount of money other countries are spending to campaign for their International Feature submission to the Oscars vs the Philippines' "Magellan"
responsibility, the sacrifice is all for Philippine cinema, for the country, for our people's pride. Admittedly, we don't really have many resources, in terms of money, and there's a dearth of support, but we're just lucky we have a great distributor like Janus Films of North America. Janus has a simple and effective way of programming the film's campaign. The Filipino producers are working hard as well. Other countries are campaigning with staggering amounts of money and support, it's mind-blowing.

"For its extraordinary aesthetic, photographic, and temporal approach, for its narrative ambition, formal rigor, and unique way of articulating historical reflection with the cinematic experience,"

AMORES PERROS MEXICaN SUBMISSIon - 2000 In Mexico City, the lives of three strangers -a young man mixed up in the gritty underworld of dogfighting, a glamorous woman who seems to have it all, and a mysterious assassin who is desperate to reconnect with his estranged daughter - collide in a tragic twist of fate that forever alters their personal journeys. EL CRIMEN DEL PADRE AMARO MEXICAN SUBMISSION - 2002 Politics and sexual passions threaten to corrupt a young, newly-ordained priest in a small Mexican town. When it was released, The Crime of Padre Amaro caused a controversy on the part of Roman Catholic groups in Mexico who tried to stop the film from being screened. They failed, and the film became the biggest box office draw ever in the country. EVEN THE RAIN SPANISH SUBMISSION - 2010 As a director and his crew shoot a controversial film about Christopher Columbus in Cochabamba, Bolivia, local people rise up against plans to privatize the water supply. Screenplay by Paul Laverty. NO CHILEAN SUBMISSION - 2012 In 1988, Chilean military dictator Augusto Pinochet, due to international pressure, is forced to call a plebiscite on his presidency. The country will vote YES or NO to Pinochet extending his rule for another eight years. Opposition leaders for the NO persuade a brash young advertising executive, to spearhead their campaign. Against all odds, with scant resources and under scrutiny by the despot's minions, Saavedra and his team devise an audacious plan to win the election and set Chile free.

Oh to have Robert Redford's gay sex scene sketches on my wall...
Rest in peace to this wonderful legend, who mentored Director Roger Ross Williams while making Cassandro (2023) 💔
"Redford takes one of the eight [directors], and he's their advisor - this is probably the last time he did this - and he chose my film," Williams said. "So, I had Redford on set with me in rehearsal, in the edit room with me. And he was amazing. The most memorable thing is there's a big sex scene in Cassandro. I was really nervous [about directing it]. I said, 'How do I do a sex scene?' And he said, 'It's all about storytelling and the choreography. He drew it out. Bob Redford storyboarded my sex scene. And I have it framed in my office hanging on the wall." gael garcia bernal and raul castillo in Cassandro (2023) directed by Roger Ross Williams
