Cinemalaya 2010 Winners

First of all, i would like to congratulate my fellow Zamboangueno, Sheron Dayoc for winning Best Director (for New Breed Full Length) for his film Halaw, which also won Best Film in this year's Cinemalaya held from July 9-18, at the CCP. The film's lead actor, Mr. Jon Arcilla, also won Best Actor.

Cinemalaya is a competitive all digital film festival that aims to discover, encourage and honor the cinematic works of Filipino filmmakers and seeks to invigorate the Philippine film industry by developing a new breed of Filipino filmmakers. Cinemalaya is a presentation of the Cinemalaya Foundation, the CCP, Film Development Council of the Philippines and Econolink Investments.
