sprajca i got a rare chance to see this movie together with its author, who played the soundtrack on the piano while the movie was showed on the big screen. immediately, after less than 1 minute of the movie, i was overwhelmed with the images and the power of the music. the movie is simple, but it tells so much about hope. the children of the manila slums live in absolute poverty, they live on piles of garbage, but they manage to keep smiling and always find time to have fun and enjoy their childhood. the struggle for survival becomes a childplay. simple b&w camera shots, pounding piano and the raspy voice of khavn de la cruz made the squatterpunk experience unforgettable...
