Happy Halloween! Today's episode isn't a scary episode, but it was recorded in the middle of the night, so there's that. And for this episode of Third World Cinema Club, we answer listener questions! Hear us talk about Letterboxd, bad movies and separating the art from the artist.

Maayong adlaw, buntag, ug gabii sa imong tanan! In this episode we put the spotlight on the last installment of Binisaya Film Festival's Adlaw-Adlaw series as we talk to two of its filmmakers, Kris Villarino and Januar Yap, as well as the film's producers Danielle Aballe- delos Reyes and Idden delos Reyes.

Notable moments: the part where we get to hear Idden delos Reyes talk behind the [face] mask; and of course how the Adlaw-Adlaw series came to be.

We've had Glaiza de Castro, Prime Cruz and Jen Chuaunsu as guests before, albeit in different episodes. This time we discuss their collaborative project Sleepless, one of our favorite local films of the decade as it premieres in Netflix.

Notable moments: when Prime and Jen reveal some never before discussed scenes that had to be cut out of the film, and the one where we find out John's zoom background.

Accompanying reviews: Read DJ Ramones' review of Sleepless (2015) here.

We really can't think of any other way to express what we felt when Lav Diaz agreed to do an episode with us. Get ready to listen to some insightful discussion on how cinema breaks horizons and boundaries, in the words of Lav Diaz.

Notable moments in this episode: we asked him some questions from Twitter, including his top 5 romcoms, and if he watches animé.

Note: This is the second part of a three part episode.
