The 15th Annual Filipino American Cinefest, a film festival of Filipino American movies, is Friday, October 31 ( 1-5 pm) and Saturday, November 1, 2008 (3-6 pm) at the San Francisco Main Library, Koret Auditorium. (100 Larkin Street @ Grove Street, Civic Center, San Francisco). A panel discussion and new works are included with the free admission. More details here. I am particularly excited that a work that my sister executive produced and that my niece is in is being shown. Below is a trailer. As I mentioned before, I don’t find Travis’s bad Tagalog that amusing, but I have to admit that I do find a “heart rendering” moment in the trailer rather moving!
What next?
