“ANG ARAW Bago ang Wakas”
Lav Diaz’s short film, “Ang Araw Bago ang Wakas,” won best feature at the recent 14th Tabor Film Festival in Zabok, Croatia. Diaz’s film, which runs for 17 minutes, offers “a dark vision of the future,” said a report in a Croatian website.
The same film earlier won the Principal Prize at the recent 62nd International Short Film Festival Oberhausen in Germany. Diaz’s short film takes place on the eve of a typhoon and features various ordinary Filipinos reciting Shakespearean lines.
“It’s all for Philippine cinema,” Diaz said of his latest honor.
The Tabor fest is a competition for fiction, animation, documentary and experimental films not longer than 30 minutes. Bayani San Diego Jr.
