Description
Program Description
Spirits Rising is a moving, evocative and timely program about women in the Philippines and their epic journey from pre-colonial priestess to president of the republic. Myth, literature, news footage and interviews with President Cory Aquino, Imelda Marcos and prominent individuals who facilitated the "people power" movement are woven together to portray a powerful matriarchal Malay identity that is as imperative to the future of the Philippine nation as it has been throughout time itself.
