Introduction

Interconnected narrative threads about the Philippine Revolution of 1896-1897 characterize {A Lullaby to the Sorrowful Mystery}: The story of the ballad "Jocelynang Baliwag", which became the hymn of the revolution; Gregoria de Jesus’ forlorn search for the body of the father of the Philippine Revolution Andres Bonifacio; the journey of our national heroes’ fictional characters Simon and Isagani; the role of the Philippine mythical hero of strength Bernardo Carpio, and the half-man, half-horse Tikbalang/Engkanto, in the Filipino psyche. The film is a marriage of history, literature, and mythology.
