Description
Eight years in the making and shot with 4 different endings. That's what it took for director Martika Escobar to finish her award-wining film and nod to '80s Pinoy action movies, "Leonor Will Never Die."
But it was all worth it after the film won the Special Jury Prize for Innovative Spirit at the World Cinema Dramatic section of the prestigious Sundance Film Festival. Escobar is the first Filipino feature film director to win at the festival. Listen to this episode recorded on February 2, 2022.
