Himala 18+

(1982, dir. Ishmael Bernal)

In a foreshore village suffering from a long drought, an adopted daughter, raised without a father, comes to believe that she has seen the Virgin Mary, and becomes a faith healer. When two young boys die despite her ministrations, she begins to doubt her visions.


Acknowledgements Manila in the Claws of Light was restored in 2013 by the World Cinema Foundation and the Film Development Council of the Philippines at Cineteca di Bologna/L’Immagine Ritrovata laboratory, in association with LVN, Cinema Artists Philippines and Mike de Leon. Restoration funding was provided by the Doha Institute. Thanks to the ABS-CBN Restoration team – Leo Katigbak, Pia de Leon and Jane C. Tenorio – for Himala and Three Years Without God, and to Mylah Quinay at ABS-CBN Film Productions for The Super Parental Guardians. The restored version of Batch ’81 is borrowed from the Asian Film Archive Collection. We thank Chew Tee Pao, Janice Chen and Christine Mak of the Archive in Singapore.
