A ground-breaking Filipino screenwriter becomes the hero of her own script when she is knocked into a coma.
Leonor Reyes was once a ground-breaking figure in the Filipino film industry during its rag-tag action cinema glory days, but now she struggles with old age, mounting bills and the untimely death of her son. While revisiting an unfinished script about a fearless protagonist trying to avenge his brother’s murder, Leonor is struck on the head by a falling television set and knocked into a coma. As she lies unconscious in the hospital, fantasy and reality begin to blur and Leonor finds herself awake inside her script, becoming the hero of her own story.
A delightfully unique tribute to the transporting power of cinema, Leonor Will Never Die marks director and co-writer Martika Ramirez Escobar as a talent to watch.
