MANILA -- A film on the aftermath of the Marcos dictatorship is finally getting its Philippine debut after more than three decades.

"A Rustling of Leaves: Inside the Philippine Revolution" is a documentary made in 1988 by acclaimed Canadian filmmaker Nettie Wild.

"It is only now that the film will face its most important audience -- the Filipinos," said the filmmaker, who is unable to attend the screening in the Philippines due to the pandemic. It follows the lives of Kumander Dante, founder of the guerrilla New People's Army; Father Navarro, rebel priest and guerrilla fighter; and Jun Pala, a radio DJ and the voice of the "Anti-Communist Crusade" and right-wing death squads in Davao.
