Bahag Kings
directed by Khavn De La Cruz, 1973-; produced by Khavn De La Cruz, 1973-; performed by Myke Sarthou, fl. 2008, Roxlee, 1950- and Elmo Redrico, 1959-2006 (Philippines: Privately Published), 1 hour 14 mins
A group of tribal leaders from the jungle search the city like a hard rock band. Or is it a rock group looking for the jungle? The filmmaker was arrested for the film, together with his half naked kings. Funny, unpolished, musical and (hence) also a little bit political.
