Panaghoy sa Suba (in English, The Call of the River or The Cry of the River; in Tagalog, Ang Panaghoy ng Suba), is a 2004 Visayan language film produced and directed by Cesar Montano, who also played the lead role.Panaghoy sa Suba is an historical romance drama about a love triangle which takes place during the Second World War. Its themes concern Filipino nationalism and the legacies of colonialism.
Panaghoy sa Suba was actor Cesar Montano's directorial debut. The filming was done in Bohol, the Philippines with a mostly Visayan cast. One of the producers, R.D. Alba had attended the Los Angeles Film School.
Panaghoy sa Suba was given an "A" rating by the Cinema Evaluation Board (C.E.B.) of the Film Development Council of the Philippines. The CEB described Cesar Montano's direction as "meticulous but light-handed." It turned "a somewhat rambling and slow screenplay into a poetic, sometimes even magical, current of silent struggle and survival."UNESCO also endorsed the film.
Panaghoy sa Suba was included as an exhibition in the Tous les Cinemas du Monde at the Cannes Film Festival in 2005. It has also been screened at film festivals in Berlin, Toronto, Tokyo, Korea and in the Czech Republic at the "Karlo Vary Film Festival". In 2005, it was also shown at the Shanghai International Film Festival and the Festival of Asian Cinema in New Delhi.
