Ang Kalayo Sa Gintung-an (A Flame in Our Midst) I Trailer 4 I 2023
[for DEFY FILM FESTIVAL 2023]
In the shadowy kingdom of Dumalángto ruled by Aetudhaman, the one-eyed king, everyone is forced to believe that they are blind. While the king feeds on people's blood to gain more power, Elhanan, a sighted and discerning slave, gets enraged by the evil occurences. Seeing the spread of darkness, famine and injustice, he awaits the right moment when he can get hold of the tattoed winged horse to attack the one-eyed king and fuel the flames of the masses to rebel against the dominion.
Director's Notes:
Created during the pandemic lockdowns and released in 2023, this dark fantasy film collage was shot in four different locations; patiently edited; and, directed via Zoom meetings which became the meeting point of all the collaborating artists. While pandemics are used by tyrannical regimes to amass wealth and be cruel to their peoples, filmmakers like us should unite and create stories to call out the injustices and wrongdoings in unique ways amidst the oppressive nature of the times.
