/
The 38th Asian American International Film Festival (AAIFF), presented by Asian CineVision, is thrilled to present the World Festival premiere of HENERAL LUNA. Directed by award-winning Filipino filmmaker Jerrold Tarog, HENERAL LUNA follows the life of General Antonio Luna during the Philippine-American war in an epic historical battle, as he tries to lead his countrymen against colonial masters. Pivoting between the internal struggle to unite his men, while trying to rise above their raging disputes, the story showcases one of the Philippine’s most brilliant military men trying to fulfill the promise of the Philippine Revolution.
