Sobre o filme

“Pig breeder has sex with daughter and granddaughter”. This news taken from a newspaper is the theme for a feature by a philippine film maker. Enthused over the idea, he goes in search of financing. When the filmmaker does find a prospective producer, he will agree to invest in the film only if it is to include some element of pornography, the only way to make it pay. After much reluctance on the part of the victims, the director obtains permission to film the story. When the film is launched with the alterations due, as demanded by production, both women feel they have been raped once more, for little of the true story is left. A type of metaphor of the contemporary world, Larger Than Life shows how a ceaseless quest for profit renders human beings insensitive to the pain of being human.
