“Leonor Will Never Die” follows the story of Leonor Reyes, a retired screenwriter of Filipino action films, who is transported into the story of one of her own unfinished scripts after falling into a coma. The movie is Director Martika Escobar’s homage to Filipino action films of the 1970s and 1980s.

“Leonor” premiered in January 2022 at the World Cinema Dramatic Competition of the 2022 Sundance Film Festival, where Escobar became the first Filipino recipient of the Sundance Special Jury Prize for Innovative Spirit.

The film also won the Amplify Voices Award for emerging filmmakers at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival. It made its U.S. West Coast premiere in San Francisco as part of the 2022 Center for Asian American Media (CAAM) Fest, the largest Asian American film festival in the U.S.
