Divine Factory
by Joseph Mangat
documentary feature, 2022, 120 minutes
Divine Factory guides us through the universe of a city-factory, a labyrinth where the marginalized work day and night painting and molding the likeness of Catholic holy saints. While for many worshippers in the Philippines their work fulfills desires of redemption, for the workers, the factory is nothing more than a place to hide from the world and a means to survive.
