    Brocka took his social activist spirit to the screen leaving behind 66 films
    which breathed life and hope for the marginalized sectors of society —
    slum-dwellers, prostitutes, construction workers, etc. He also directed for
    theater with equal zeal and served in organizations that offer alternative
    visions, like the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) and the
