Fimilea Films, a production team formed by BA-Communication seniors, won four awards in the inaugural Puregold CinePanalo Film Festival held from March 15-17, 2024.
The team’s entry entitled “Kung Nag-aatubili” emerged at the third place of Movie and Television Review and Classification Board’s (MTRCB) “Responsableng Paglikha ng Pelikula”. It was directed by Dizelle Masilungan, who was hailed as the “Best Director.”
