Announcing the East Coast Premiere of AND SO IT BEGINS with Maria Ressa and Leni Robredo.
In a decades-long nonfiction saga about the director Ramona Diaz presents the latest chapter on her homeland as President Rodrigo Duterte’s despotic reign is coming to an end. And So It Begins proffers unbridled access to all the key players in the months leading up to the country’s 2022 presidential election.

Weaving together multiple narratives against the backdrop of a gloves-off campaign for the most powerful office in the land, what emerges is a dazzling cinematic portrait of a beleaguered nation fighting for its very soul.
