Philippines : Imelda Marcos
9 minutes, 2004
Ref: 423

Many people who could not point to the Philippines on the map will have heard of the country’s former First Lady and her shoe collection. A larger than life character, Imelda Marcos has always courted controversy. Now she’s the subject of an award-winning documentary which paints a perhaps less than flattering picture of her. We spoke with her about the film, which she now says she wishes she’d never agreed to take part in it. We also spoke with the producer of the documentary who says that she doesn’t understand why Imelda Marcos is so upset about the film.
