#SineSingko: The Margaha Film Festival 2024 After Movie
Let us take a look at the highlights of this year's SIneMargaha festivities! Thank you so much to all the filmmakers, movie goers, sponsors, and the Sagaynons who sat with us at the Margaha beach to witness the premiere of our seven films and to those who celebrated with us at the Awards Night at the plaza.
Madamo gid nga salamat kag kilitaay kita sa aton Margaha Film Workshops this year!
#SineSingko SineMargaha Best Short Film
Highly experimental in form and content, this film brings to a world that, while human emotions still exist, are really about different creatures. Different from us, they are part of Nature and we learn more about being human from them than from depictions of how we are superior to them. The jury this year believe this film is a fitting transition to a new trend of filmmaking that the Sagaynon filmmakers should begin to explore. Like Art, which developed because artists began to chart new courses, this film is a good symbol of how cinema could bring about major changes to art, artists and the art communities they are building.
The SineMargaha Best Short Film therefore is given to Last Day Productions & HakaAtDog for their film Taga-Taga.

#SineSingko Margaha Excellence for Film
This film shows us a very modern treatment of material. While the film is really a comic material, the filmmaker does not neglect to infuse satire and irony in it, elevating an ordinary commentary about the bad influences a child gets from free TV and other mass media technologies. While falling short of presenting an excellent critique of the unsupervised surrounding for a young mind, the film nevertheless is a cautionary tale about how films and, for that matter, social media, are dangerous and should never be ignored.
The Margaha Excellence for Film is given to Kantiaha Prod for their film Bang Bang Bang Patay Ka Na Patay Ka Na.

#SineSingko SineMargaha Jury Prize
This film can be described as traditional in its manner of storytelling but it does not stop us from viewing the life of an ordinary family and reveal to us great lessons about simplicity and humility. Towards the end, the film quietly develops into a form that is not yet greatly practiced locally - the creative documentary. Here is a film that wears its heart openly for us to admire and emulate, a role that cinema should never lose.
The SineMargaha Jury Prize is awarded to Last Day Productions for their film Mananguete.

#SineSingko Best Supporting Actor
A supporting actor does not merely assist the lead in fleshing out the characters; he should also provide a counterpoint in terms of contrast while retaining that difficult function of maintaining chemistry with the major actor. Here in the film, we find this kind of actor who finds in his characters the dual face of the tragicomic. Funny and light, he understands he can never lose the heart.
For this performance, the Best Supporting Actor is given to Romeo Descartin, Jr. of Taga-Taga.

#SineSingko Best Screenplay
A unique story sets this film apart from the others. At the beginning, the film has a rom-com appeal but as it progresses, as we begin to react and respond to the cute and witty exchanges, we begin to realize we are confronting a different, almost absurdist and existential treatment of romantic story. Here we have a tragic story that is told with such lightness, we almost neglect to predict the ending that is devastating.
The #SineSingko Best Screenplay goes to Trini Archie Garcia for Taga-Taga

#SineSingko Best Production Design
Found landscapes and sceneries are ultimately the exciting backdrop for the story about love, pain and inevitable destruction a certain kind of relationship brings. While we acknowledge that this approach is never easy, the filmmakers are able to seamlessly move their characters across spaces, hiding from us the difficulty and presenting to us the artistry.
All these efforts have convinced the jury that the #SineSingko Best Production Design should be given to Mery Grace Rama-Mission for Mananguete.

#SineSingko Heritage Award
What is a good film without its charming commentaries about human kinship? This film reminds us, through its keen observations of the everyday life, that the family can be simply described by two scenes in the film: those of the parents working hard to give their child a good life and the the heartwarming assurance that children do go home to take care of their parents out of filial piety and love. The film is also an assurance of that one grand but often forgotten task of filmmakers - the serious documentation of vanishing traditions.
For this, the #SineSingko Nunelucio Alvarado Panublion Award is respectfully offered to Mananguete of Last Day Productions.
