"Leonor is trying to write and revise her own life as it is happening. I also wanted to have an action star grandma."
The imaginative Filipino film, "Leonor Will Never Die" is a mash-up of action movies, melodrama, romance and moviemaking — with dance and musical numbers thrown in for good measure. The film is the brainchild of Martika Ramirez Escobar, who wrote and directed this singular cinematic experience, and for her efforts won a special Jury Prize for innovative Spirit at this year's Sundance Film Festival.
