Directed by Jim Libiran, EDSA 25: Sulyap sa Kasaysayan (A Glimpse of History) is a 2011 documentary produced by ABS-CBN News and Current Affairs for the 25th anniversary of the People Power Revolution — recounting the final years of former President Ferdinand Marcos in power up to the historic three days of February 1986. The film stitches together archival footage of the ’70s and ’80s with the voices of eyewitnesses and key players in the events leading to EDSA.
The documentary also presents never-before-heard recollections of the soldiers, officials, activists, and journalists who were there in EDSA.
The documentary was named a finalist for Best Documentary at the 2012 New York TV and Film Fesivals in the History and Society category.
Also known as the “EDSA Revolution" ,“Yellow Revolution,” “Bloodless Revolution” and “1986 Philippine Revolution.”, the People Power Revolution was a culmination of a series of public protests against the oppressive and abusive dictatorial government and alleged electoral fraud committed by Ferdinand E. Marcos. Over 2 million Filipino civilians, as well as several political and military groups, and religious groups, gathered along Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (more commonly referred to as EDSA) in Metro Manila from February 22 to 25, 1986. It was the first nonviolent, bloodless revolution that ever took place. Despite the presence of tanks and guns, no shots were ever fired.
