Name: Claws Of Light
Duration: P00H03M15S
Description: Claws of Light is a pretty popular and critically acclaimed filipino film by Lino Brocka. It's about a young man who leaves his provincial origins to go to Manila, the country's metropolitan capital and try his luck, finding his childhood love whose name is Joy (Ligaya). His fate is tragic. I've seen this film many times and I am puzzled as to why he doesn't just go back to the province.

lyrics

her name is joy
looking for the sunshine, boy
looking for the sunshine toy
it doesn't exist
it doesn't exist in here
it doesn't exist in this

the claws of the light
manila whore
the claws of the light
you're just as lost
the claws of the light
manila whore
the claws of the light

just go back to where the sun does shine
