Sigwa (2010) **

Interesting, but uneven political drama from the Philippines. It's a story of a group of left-wing revolutionaries from the 1970's who ultimately took very different paths in life (some left the movement, some left the country, some joined the government and others continued the struggle). Very thought-provoking, and while its left-wing bias is quite evident, the film allows competing points of view to be expressed.
