A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino
註釋Explores the tensions within an artistic bourgeois family living in the prewar Intramuros of Old Manila. The dying Don Lorenzo el Magnifico and his two spinster daughters, 43-y/o Candida and 40-y/o Paula are still living in their old ancestral house located inside Intramuros, the walled city located inside the city. The house is decaying and the two daughters are now collecting bills. Their only hope is to sell the famous (and un-exhibited) self-portrait that their father painted, called “Portrait of an Artist as Filipino” but they don't wish to.
