Both of these films made me cry for different reasons — love of a son to his mother, and love of Filipinos to their motherland.
Congratulations Firefly and Gomburza Team 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

“It’s ok to be discouraged. Acknowledge it. And turn discouragement into a positive mindset. Take that as a challenge. It’s a process — sometimes it’s a long and bumpy ride, and there are times you get detoured in wrong paths. But it’s alright. You’ll learn and you’ll grow strong.” (Ma-an to students)

You know when a film has a great impact to audience once they make a paper, thesis, or film essay about it.

Filmmaking is fun and exciting. It is a collaborative art. The success of the film comes from a positive environment and great efforts of each member of the creative, production, post-production, and marketing & promo team.
