I wanted to know if anyone here has information about Lino Brocka. I've read differing sources, but they seem to agree that he was at least one of the first baptized members in the Philippines if not the first. All I know is that films about him are available on 35 in the US, but does anyone know how to view his films? He's widely regarded as the greatest of all Filipino filmmakers, but does anyone know anything about any other Filipino filmmakers? I'm sure there is someone who lived there.

LDS Film has a piece on Lino Brocka: http://www.ldsfilm.com/directors/Brocka.html

One of his films was screened in NY in June '04: http://www.motleyvision.org/?p=16
