Filipiñana | The Criterion Channel
Our film 'Filipiñana' directed by Rafael Manuel is now playing on the Criterion Channel!
The self-contained cosmos of a country-club golf course serves as a microcosm of Philippine society in this sharply observed miniature. New 'tee-girl' Isabel still has to learn the rules—but she is already looking for loopholes to subvert the system.

'AN EARTH-SHATTERING COMING OF AGE STORY'
Kids On Fire was named 2021's Best Live Action Short Film by the Society of Filipino Film Reviewers "for showing the hypocrisy of religious indoctrination through an earth-shattering coming of age story with apocalyptic stakes."
Kyle Nieva's short also received multiple nominations for Best Screenplay, Production Design, Film Score, and Supporting Performance, competing with feature films. The Society called the inclusion of short films in the list of main categories of this year's Pinoy Rebyu Awards as "unprecedent in local film awards bodies" and "a testament to the improving creativity of young filmmakers."
