Veteran Phillipino director Gil M. Portes creates this chilling morality tale. Though widowed ex-cop Homer (Ricky Davao) is a kindly father to his ten-year old son Rex (Lester Llangsang), he is considered to be something of a bully in the poor Manila neighborhood that he lives. After mistaking a child retrieving a snarled kite for a burglar, Homer kills the boy and then hurriedly tries to cover up his error. Unbeknownst to his dad, Rex witnessed the event, too. As the two separately wrestle with their consciences, the neighbors find out and chaos soon ensues. Saranggola was screened at the 1999 Montreal Film Festival.
