Bernardo Bernardo is back on Fred after Berlinale to talk again about Lav Diaz’s Lullaby to the Sorrowful Mistery screening at the 34th Torino Film Festival in Festa Mobile. The actor describes the mythological figure he represents in the film, the Tikbalang and to guide the audience through Lav Diaz’s films. Working in one of Diaz’s films or watching one of his films wants every person to actually experience the film and the process. When Bernardo Bernardo is not acting in a film or a play, he recharges his batteries through karaoke and the art of crystal healing.

Lullaby to the sorrowful mistery. Interconnected narrative threads on the Philippine Revolution of 1896-1897 against Spain characterize Hele sa Hiwagang Hapis–the story of the ballad Jocelynang Baliwag, which became the hymn of the revolution; Gregoria de Jesus’ forlorn search for the body of the Father of Philippine Revolution Andres Bonifacio; the journey of our national heroes’ fictional book characters Simon and Isagani; the role of the Philippine mythical hero of strength Bernardo Carpio and the half-man, half-horse Tikbalang/Engkanto, on the Filipino psyche. It is a marriage of history, literature and mythology.
