Edita Burgos has been in a desperate search for her missing son Jonas for 17 years. Jonas, a prominent activist for a left-wing farmers group, was bundled by a group of unknown men into a vehicle at a Manila shopping mall in 2007. He has not been seen since.
Edita is the protagonist in her youngest son JL Burgos's new documentary about Jonas's disappearance, in hope of finding out his whereabouts. Human rights group Karapatan estimates hundreds of people have gone missing or died in extra-judicial killings since the government began fighting a communist insurgency in the late 1960s.
