Upcoming Philippine Documentary Screening: 11,103
Tuesday, November 19. 2024 2:45-5:00 PM
Hamilton Library Room 306, University of Hawai’i at Mānoa
We are excited to invite you to a special screening of 11,103, a powerful documentary directed by Jeannette Ifurung and Miguel Alcazaren. This film offers a striking exploration of history, memory, and justice in the Philippines. It juxtaposes the stories of cruelty and violence during Ferdinand Marcos Sr.’s martial law era with the current political landscape. 11,103 highlights Bongbong Marcos, to the presidency—a journey shaped by social media narratives and the denial of a painful past. This documentary sheds light on the struggles of the 11,103 officially recognized victims of martial law and examines how historical revisionism impacts Philippine society today. The screening is co-sponsored by the Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Center for Philippine Studies, and Asian Studies.
