David Lynch wants to share his knowledge. The noted "Twin Peaks" director and devoted Transcendental Meditation practitioner is teaching students at the David Lynch Ma in Film program at The Maharishi University of Management in Fairfield, Iowa. And he is giving away tidbits of wisdom in 10-second clips -- or at least one of them. During last weekend’s David Lynch Signature Cup Coffee event at the Whole Foods Market in West Hollywood, CA, Lynch fans got the chance to meet the director and taste his fairly traded line of organic coffee. Fan (and "Rakenrol" filmmaker) Quark Henares attended the event and got a chance to ask the director for some filmmaking advice. Henares captured the moment on Instagram and now you can see it for yourself. In short (and there's really no other choice on Instagram), Lynch advises, "Be true to yourself. Don't take no for an answer. And start your Transcendental Meditation.

Rakenrol is a lot of firsts for its director, Quark Henares. It is his first feature film to be produced and directed independent of any major studio backing. It is his feature first film to be completely free from any genre limitations. It is also his first feature film after the untimely death of his most loyal supporter and most honest critic, Alexis Tioseco, to which he dedicates the film as a partial fulfilment to one of Tioseco's famous wishes for Philippine Cinema. Gamitan (2002), produced by Viva, was clearly bankrolled to maximize the very popular sex appeal of Maui Taylor, who pumped fresh blood and class to the waning genre of titillating films that dominated Philippine cinema in the last few years of...

In the works for long enough that even its own creator - director Quark Henares - joked that he was releasing the trailer because it was about bloody time, Philippine rock and roll coming of age story Rakenrol will be making its world premiere at the Udine Far East Film Festival.Henares is a director that has been on the radar here at Twitch for quite some time, creating stylish and energetic indie films that stand at odds with most of the typical Filipino studio product. This one follows a pretty simple pattern - boy meets girl, girl loves rock music, boy starts a band with her - but it's all about the execution. Take a look at the trailer below....
