When I think of Philippine Cinema, there are two particular movies that come to mind: There’s of course General Luna, which dramatically depicts our transition from Spanish to American rule and the beginning of the Philippine-American War. Then there's Goyo, its underrated sequel that continues the story beautifully highlighting a key moment in the war, the battle of Tirad Pass. Both of these films recreated Old Manila like never before and were the first films that made me feel truly immersed in our history. They set a standard for modern Filipino films and there were many great original Pinoy films that have followed since their releases. Today on the Individual Collective, we have the brain behind these two masterpieces and the co-founder of TBA Studios, mister Ed RochaIn today's episode, we talk about his early years in the 70’s a young actor during martial law, his screenwriting process for historical fiction, his opinion on how the current state of the Filipino film industry could be improved, and so much more! Hope you enjoy the show.

The idea of the education system being flawed isn't new, yet, not a lot has been said on how can students deal with it. It is so easy to go through the motions of school, jumping over academic hurdles and lose track of what really matters in education.
These are a few thoughts that I've put together on how to get the most out of a flawed education system. This has been inspired by Simon Sinek's book "The Infinite Game" and Sir Ken Robinson's book on Educational Reform called "Creative Schools" as well as my own personal experience trying to make the most out of my college life.
Here are a few resources to help you play the infinite game of learning during the lockdown:
