Productive filmmaker Lav Diaz shoots lots of long films, but there are some he hasn’t made yet, such as the historical film The Great Desaparecido. This prologue gives us an idea what the next masterpiece will be like: black-and-white, wet jungles and real people in authentic costumes. See also Norte, the End of History in Spectrum.
