Winner of the Orient Express Award for Best Film at Fantasporto, “Kargo” is the second feature of T. M. Malones, and was initially screened in Cinemalaya last August.
Sara, a former stripper in Manila, moved to Maasin, Iloilo, where she was married and had a daughter with her husband, a lorry driver. Unfortunately, a road accident caused them both to die, shattering Sara's life, who succumbed to alcoholism, before she decided to take up her husband's job, in an effort to look for Jesus, the man who, in her mind, was responsible for her tragedy. The work is not easy at all, with her being constantly harassed by men, but eventually she meets a young girl and takes her under her protection. Her search for Jesus, however, continues.
Tm Malones directs a movie that unfolds in two axes, one literal and one symbolic. The literal one is essentially a road...
