Beinte Singko: Festival of Memories, Creation of New Stories
Call for Entries
A festival of memories
A creation of new stories
Beinte Singko seeks to mainstream human rights and remind the people
of the horrors of Martial Law and take stock of its lessons so that those
dark years may never happen again.
Beinte Singko will use old photographs taken and poetry written during
Martial Law about the peoples aspirations for freedom and combine it
with new interpretations of the new generation to convey the message to
the people. Stories will be told through the works of artists and activists
who witnessed and even experienced the atrocities of martial law to
share their stories and influence the public, especially todays youth, toalways remain vigilant. It will also be a venue for the new generation to
give their interpretation and to express their opinions about the pressing
issues of human rights today.
Beinte Singko commemorates the downfall of the dictatorship by bringing back the memories
and stories of heroism of freedom fighters, human rights defenders, activists and revolutionaries
during that time.
