About this plan
Let Us Through, Dear Ancestors is one of the films showing at the Bogota International Film Festival (BIFF), one of Colombia's most important cinema events. The film steps away from big commercial releases and moves into arthouse territory, with a critical look at history.
The story follows Father Enciso, a Spanish friar who rules an island in the Philippines with a heavy hand and a faith that justifies suffering. Inside that colonial world, his son Dungwen takes on a risky mission: transporting marble for the building of a church. What looks like a simple task turns into an intimate portrait of power, rebellion, and the weight of ancestors.
