The Philippine Embassy in Canberra and the Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT), in partnership with the Filipino-Australian Student Council Victoria (FASTCO) present "Ang Larawan" (The Portrait).
Ang Larawan is the film adaptation of Larawan, The Musical, which is based on National Artist for Literature Nick Joaquin’s three-act English play: A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino. First published in 1952, Joaquin’s work has been depicted numerous times on stage on screen and in English and Filipino—making it one of the most pedigreed literary works of the Philippines.
This film is the 2017 Metro Manila Film Festival's Best Picture Awardee. It has English subtitles and is suitable for 15 years old and above.
