The UP Film Institute congratulates UPFI student, Gilb Baldoza for winning the Best Experimental Film for his short, “Kinalimutan Natin Ng Mga Bata” at the Piling Obrang Vidyo  last January 27, 2018 at UP Cine Adarna, UP Diliman, Quezon City.

POV XIV: Celebrating peoples’ narratives In 2017, celebrated the peoples’ stories in the hopes of sparking social change. Less than a year since then, change indeed has come, bringing forth onerous social realities, including even those once deemed inconceivable — a fresh set of alternative narratives waiting to be captured and told to a larger audience.

Again, congratulations, Gilb!
