Dateline: 05 August 2018, Cultural Center of the Philippines, Manila
While I didn't attend to any of the screenings scheduled in Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival this year, I took time to look around some of the simultaneous events at the Cultural Center of the Philippines. Like Trenta, Gawad CCP Alternatibo's 30th anniversary exhibition. Then this, the Cinemalaya market, sort of a filmmakers' trade fair. It occupied the hallways of the CCP's fourth floor; not a lot of vendors participated in this initial venture.
Was able to converse briefly at a booth that was promoting Beastmode, starred by Baron Geisler and Kiko Matos. Ugh. Too much testosterone for me. And the publicity stunts they did pre-production were a total turn-off. But these teks cards (i.e. trading cards) caught my attention. Just displayed, not sold, though.
