Lost in Translation, one of my favorite films of all time, premiered at Telluride exactly 23 yrs ago.
To commemorate this, I thought I’d share my scene-by-scene recreation of Charlotte’s spiritual journey to Kyoto. Shot this when I visited Japan earlier this year. Core memory.

Masyado talagang late mag-announce ang Pinas ng Oscar entry. Other countries are already running sprints at this stage of the game while we’re still tying our shoelaces. If we really want to be nominated (or at least, make the shortlist), then that needs fixing.

Filipino Animation and Cinema fans, pay attention!
58th by Carl E. Papa is a docudrama on the missing remains of a photojournalist among the victims of the 2009 Maguindanao Massacre.
Over a hundred animators rotoscoped real archive footage from the massacre's aftermath.

Tomorrow (August 13, 8:30 PM) may be the one and only public Philippine screening of 58th. 🥲 And we can’t wait to share the movie with you guys. See you there!
Getting closer to that Oscar dream! 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
