Signed Lino Brocka 1987 Signed Lino Brocka is an intimate conversation with the Filipino film director who brought passion, creativity and recognition to Philippine cinema This feature, which won the 1988 Peace Film Award at the Berlin International Film Festival, captures how Brockas passionate and energetic soul in person was seamlessly conveyed on screen in his films It shows just how thin and permeable the line was between his world as a filmmaker, and his world as a political progressive and fervent critic of the oppressive Marcos rule in the Philippines Despite being branded as a troublemaker who often found himself at odds with the authorities, Brockas acute sense of the ins and outs of the film industry, his deep understanding of the underlying truths of Philippine societal issues, and his playful, subversive eye as filmmaker allowed him to leave a legacy far greater than the sum of its parts after his untimely death in a car crash in 1991
