The film project that started it all, My Boy Superman, is a 20-minute documentary that tells the story of Oyen, a 16-year-old non-verbal adolescent living with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The film depicts how Oyen's family struggles and copes with his unique condition. This documentary inspired Professor Jonathan Jurilla to write the screenplay for Love Child, which won 1st Place in the 2023 Palanca Awards for Dulaang Pampelikula and was selected as one of the finalists for Cinemalaya 2024.
"My Boy Superman" is also a finalist in the CCP Gawad Alternatibo Documentary Short Film Category. Watch it from August 3-10 at Ayala Malls Manila Bay. Admission is free.
“My Boy Superman” is written and directed by Jonathan Jurilla.
