Moral
Marilou Diaz-Abaya, Philippines, 1982, DCP, 140 min.
In Tagalog with English subtitles.
Four Filipina women navigate friendship and adulthood against a backdrop of martial rule in the late Marilou Diaz-Abaya’s frank and unapologetically melodramatic masterpiece— the second in a loose “trilogy” centering women’s lives and perspectives. The film was digitally restored by L’Immagine Ritrovata in 2017 using damaged and nearly-unsalvageable 35mm negatives from the collection of the Film Development Council of the Philippines.
