GAYUMA (PILGRIM LOVERS)
Country: Philippines
Production year: 2011
Director: Alvin B. Yapan
Producer: Alemberg Ang
Cast: Mercedes Cabral, Kalil Almonte, Robyn John Reyes, Frank Penones
Duration: 86 min
Gayuma is a magical tale of love going beyond the boundaries of social class, religious and superstitious beliefs, and urban-rural prejudices. A failed exorcism of a talking and dancing statue of a Child Jesus leads a poor sacristan, Delfin, to concoct a love potion to make Carla, a rich girl, fall for him. After Carla drinks the potion and assents to all his advances, Delfin cannot believe his luck until he is no longer certain whether Carla really loves him. He descends into a deep sleep of paranoia, from which no medical science can wake him. Carla goes on a pilgrimage to overturn the enchantment of the love potion. A possessed statue of a Child Jesus stands between the two lovers. Probably the only Bikol-language film screened in Poland.

BUSONG (PALAWAN FATE) TEASER
Busong is the indigenous Palawan concept of Fate or instant Karma.
Nature reacts instantly to man's disrespect of nature and other men.
Punay was born with wounds in her feet so that she cannot step on the
earth. Her brother, Angkarang, carries her through a hammock, as he
searches the changing landscape of Palawan in hoping to find a healer
who can cure Punay. Different people help him carry his sister along the
way- a woman looking for her husband, a fisherman who lost his boat and
a young man who is searching for himself- and each one meets their
fate. The first Palawanon indigenous film.
