Grabbed this from the Movies section of this site. Made up of 16 parts and this is part 1. NB: If site admin allows me to post the other parts, we get the full movie. :-)

Here is the story as entered by the uploader: “Acclaimed director Lino Brocka and screenwriter Mario O Hara tell a powerful story about small town injustice. Junior (Christopher de Leon) is a privileged young man living in a small, devoutly Catholic provincial town. His father is a womanizer, his mother a materialistic shrew. His friends spend their days tormenting the village idiot, Kuala (Lolita Rodriguez), and the upstanding women of the town shun local leper Berto (Marion O Hara) as they go about their charitable work. Increasingly alienated and disgusted by the hypocrisy of the townsfolk, Junior finds himself identifying more and more with Berto and Kuala. He tries to make things right for these marginalized characters but his attempts are met with futility at every turn and inevitably, tragedy strikes.”

Additional Ed’s Notes: January 15, 2010 to replace the “series placement” with a video playlist. Original posting Sept 15, 2008
