Manila by Night follows denizens of the city’s sordid yet exuberant underworld as they pursue their notions of life, love, and pleasure. In turn, this book follows the film’s equally arduous yet exhilarating journey through repression and censorship to a reluctanct release by the Marcos government as proof of its liberalism during the 1986 uprising.
