ICON celebrates 30th anniversary of Mario O'Hara's Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos

The Cultural Center of the Philippines and the International Circle of Online Noranians (ICON) present a commemorative 30th anniversary screening of Mario O'Hara's Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos on November 19, 2006 (Sunday), 3:00 pm, at the Cultural Center of the Philippines Dream Theater, CCP Complex, Pasay City. (The film will be shown in 35 mm format.)

For Jinky and Potpot, life in Benguet (North Philippines) is simply a trek to and from school. Every day, together with other children, they have to cross mountains, rivers and hanging bridges to get to their destination. They survive thanks to the work of their elder brothers, Manong Ramil and Manong Ronaldo, who inherited the task of looking after their siblings and grandfather on their parents' death. Both work for a mining company, leaving the younger brothers in their grandfather's care. But the elder brothers haven't been back for months.
