This week we're excited to present a conversation with director Lav Diaz and lead actor Gael García Bernal as they discuss the NYFF63 selection Magellan with NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. Interpretation by Gil Quito.

Every astonishing visual composition carries historical and political weight in the monumental new film from singular Filipino filmmaker Lav Diaz, who mounts an absorbing story of colonial conquest and obsession, starring Gael García Bernal as Ferdinand Magellan.

Magellan is now in theaters, courtesy of Janus Films.

The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.
