160. Fight for us (1989)


Country: Philippines
Directed by Lino Brocka

Artistically 'Fight with 'Fight for us'  can't reach the quality of others, previous Brocka's works. However, is a significal film as is probably the most radical, political daring and direct film ever made in Phillipines on attacking the Filipino regime that , even after the fall of Ferdinand Marcos, continued to oppress the people with that much brutality as before. With very emphatic way, through the story of a priest who after years of dynamic opposition to the previous government decides to be a peaceful activist until realize that this is not enough so he returns to the method of armed resistance , Brocka says that nothing really changed to the country and the people have to fight hard until the real liberation
