'Balik Tanaw': An I-Witness documentary by Howie Severino
"Balik Tanaw"
Dokumentaryo ni Howie Severino
Airing date: December 30, 2013
In a long journalism career, Howie Severino has encountered many individuals who are no longer on this earth. 2013 was an unusually heart-breaking year, when he lost his cameraman of more than 20 years, Egay Navarro, along with two personalities Howie deeply admired, Behn Cervantes and Eddie Romero.
Behn and Eddie were two giants of the arts who helped Howie explain an era to a youthful audience in his documentary, "Ganito Kami Noong Martial Law," which explored the paradox of a golden age of Philippine cinema blooming in a period of dictatorship. Howie first met Behn in political detention during the Marcos regime.
Egay Navarro was a legend among those who had the good fortune of working with him in a career that began when he was in his teens. Howie collaborated with Egay on a wide range of video pieces that ranged from quirky TV news stories to the documentaries for I-Witness that won them many awards. He was more than a cameraman, as Howie always knew. Egay was an adventurer who used the camera to explore and interact with the world.
As their year-end documentary for 2013, Howie and his documentary team will look back on these lives and their work, and the impact that they made.

Sa mahabang panahon bilang isang mamamahayag at dokumentarista, marami nang nakilala si Howie Severino na pumanaw na. Ngayong 2013 namaalam na ang kaniyang cameraman na halos dalawampung taon niyang nakasama, si Egay Navarro. Ngayong taon din, pumanaw ang dalawa pang personalidad na hinahangaan ni Howie na sina Behn Cervantes at Eddie Romero.
Sina Behn at Eddie, dalawang namumukod tanging alagad ng sining, naging bahagi ng dokumentaryong “Ganito Kami Noong Martial Law.” Tinulungan nila si Howie ipaliwanag sa mas nakababatang manonood ang golden age ng Philippine cinema noong panahon ng Marcos regime. Unang nakilala ni Howie si Behn nang sabay silang ikulong noong panahon ni Marcos.
Si Egay Navarro naman, isa nang maituturing na alamat para sa mga naging mapalad na makatrabaho siya. Nakasama siya ni Howie sa napakaraming storya, mula sa maiilking video piece para sa balita, hanggang sa mga dokumentaryo sa I-Witness na umani ng maraming parangal. Pero hindi lang isang cameraman si Egay Navarro kundi isang adbenturero na ginamit ang camera para tuklasin ang mundo.
Sa pagtatapos ng 2013, babalikan ni Howie Severino ang makukulay nilang buhay at ang mga naiambag nila para sa kultura at industriya ng sining sa Pilipinas.
