SXSW 2021 - Islands director Martin Edralin

Published: March 23, 2021, 2:34 a.m.

When we decided to have director Martin Edralin on the show to talk about his film Islands, we didn't know how the movie was going to effect us. Martin wrote and directed a film that perfectly describes the experience of a Filipino family outside of their homeland. It tackles the real challenges around the caretaking of one parent after the other passes away, processing (or not processing) death,  socializing as an adult, loneliness, and of course Elvis impersonators in our families. 

We thank Martin for letting us share our experiences and how they 100% related to his beautiful film. We see you, Martin, and are so excited for the wide release of Islands
