A wonderful woman, who directed beautiful movies. She perfected her craft. Her movies immortalised her. Jose Rizal was a blockbuster. But so was Bagong Buwan, Moral, Karnal. She is not just a National Artist but an International Artist. Bravo! Eternal Rest now for you, Marilou.

Today we commemorate the 13th death anniversary of National Artist Marilou Diaz - Abaya.

Film and television director Marilou Diaz-Abaya demonstrated that innovative and daring storytelling is always effective. Beginning her extensive career in the 1980s alongside fellow pioneer Ricky Lee during the Second Golden Age of Philippine Cinema, she collaborated with the screenwriter on the highly regarded and commercially successful film Brutal (1980).

This partnership would define a significant portion of Abaya’s body of work, as she focused on narratives highlighting the challenges faced by women in a patriarchal society. Over time, she established herself as a prominent figure in Philippine cinema, earning recognition from both critics and audiences for her contributions.
