Lukas the Strange (Lukas Nino)

An adolescent is plunged into a realm of mystery, legend, and dreams.

A small town in the Philippines is turned upside down by the arrival of a film crew that has everyone excited. Meanwhile, 13-year-old Lukas finds his own world overturned when he is told that his father is a tikbalang (half-horse, half man). His father’s disappearance leaves Lukas to try to unravel the mystery of his own heritage and his own nature. A stunning and disorienting film on the magic of life and the magic of cinema.
