​The Apollo Centennial

​Filipino Science Fiction

​“Apollo Centennial” is set in 2069, a hundred years after the 1969 lunar expedition, and it tells the story of Arcadio Nagbuya, an indigent farmer who takes his family to see a travelling exhibit of artefacts and mementos from the now 100 year-old lunar landing.

​

The family’s journey is difficult, and in the narrative it’s revealed that while the rest of the world had moved on (to more wondrous high-tech futures), Filipino society had stagnated. The country had become an oppressive police state where traditional regional languages were suppressed in favour of a state-sponsored lingua franca called “Tagilocan”.

​“His cousin clicks off the flashlight and speaks to him, not in Tagilocan, but in the old language and the tender fluid accents of their father’s tongue, unheard for so long yet never quite lost nor forgotten, bring a swift rush of pride and love that pushes back the enclosing dread.” – from “Apollo Centennial” by Gregorio Brilliantes

​

The story captured in beautiful yet searing prose one of the greatest fears of Filipinos – that nothing will ever change and that the Philippines will always be left behind.
