"AMON Banwa sa Lawud (Our Island of the Mangrove Moons)," co-produced by the Erehwon Center for the Arts and the Kellogg Institute for International Studies of Notre Dame University, United States of America, was chosen as the Best International Feature Film at the Louth International Film Festival.
The film was directed by Anton Juan, who also co-wrote the screenplay. It focused on the efforts of the island people of Suyac in Negros, in the Visayas region of the Philippines, to resist foreign threats to their livelihood and their way of life. It showed the story of island communities that are facing annihilation, because of power plays by foreign nations usurping territories beyond their legal boundaries.
