"TUKSO" at the Indie Sine beginning October 3


TUKSO, which won for myself and my co-writers Nikki Torres and Mara Paulina Marasigan the Best Screenplay Award in the 2007 Cinemalaya Philippine Independent Film Festival, will be screened at the Indie Sine at the Robinson's Movieworld Galleria from October 3 to 9, 2007.

TUKSO is a mystery film with a twist. A young village lass is found dead. An investigator is assigned to the case, and the film presents the different perspectives of the people who know her. In the cast are award-winning film, television and theater actors led by RICKY DAVAO and IRMA ADLAWAN together with SHAMAINE BUENCAMINO, SOLIMAN CRUZ, SID LUCERO, PING MEDINA, and DIANA MALAHAY.

RICKY plays David Solomon, a businessman whose subdivision project and personal life are affected by the girl’s mysterious death. IRMA plays the role of Fe, a widow who may have the key that can help unravel the mystery. SOLIMAN portrays the deceased girl's father; SHAMAINE is the investigator. PING is the girl's childhood friend, while SID is the architect she has an affair with.

Also lending their talents in the film are NONIE BUENCAMINO, MAILES KANAPI, RONNIE LAZARO, PAOLO O'HARA, JOEY PARAS and BING PIMENTEL, while supporting roles are played by the TANGHALANG PILIPINO ACTORS COMPANY.

The Cinemalaya Jury cited "TUKSO" for its "engaging multilevel storyline that effectively unfolds a mystery while revealing character."
