Winners sa kasaysayan Historical ScriptÂwriting Contest ini-announce na!
MANILA, Philippines - Nalaman na ang mga nanalo sa ginanap na kaSAYSAYan Historical Scriptwriting Contest ng Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDPC).
Ang project ay inilunsad nong February pa bilang paghahanda sa 2011, bilang marker sa maraming notable events sa Philippine History tulad ng Jose Rizal’s 150th birthday, the country’s 65th year of independence from America, and the People Power Revolution’s 50th anniversary.
The contest also aimed to find the most captivating yet unknown story, in the form of a full-length screenplay, using Filipino natural history as a springboard. Naging overwhelming ang response mula sa lahat ng bahagi ng bansa pero tatlo lang ang dineklarang nanalo.
Pagkatapos ng mainit na deliberation, nagwagi ang Balangiga by Jose F. Lacaba took top spot for its sheer brilliance and polish as a full-length screenplay, and Florencio dela Cruz Quintos’ Nan Hudhud Hi Apo Ilyam (Apo Ilyam’s Hudhud) won second prize. Meanwhile, the Hollywood-ready script by Eduardo Rocha and the late Henry Francia, The Whirlwinds of Dust: The Fall of Antonio Luna ang naging third prize. The winners will receive P350,000, P250,000, P150,000, respectively.
