Legazpi: And That One Philippine Island of Cunning Fools

Original title: Legazpi: Y Una Isla Filipina de mga Gwatsinanggo nga Animal

“Based on real, archived letters from Miguel López de Legazpi...”

Directed by Mico Lorenzo Minerva

In this time-defying, satirical adaptation of Miguel López de Legazpi's archived letters, the 16th-century Spanish expedition instead encounters present-day Cebu. The same difficulties with the island’s natives lead to their decision to leave for the other Philippine islands.
