Judy Ann Santos in a 2016 Cinemalaya Film

 

Cenon Palomares, Judy Ann Santos & David Corpuz

 The first Cinemalaya 2016 film to announce its lead actress is KUSINA -- and its non other than young superstar Ms Judy Ann Santos! 

At the presentation of the finalists on stage of CCP Little Theater, Juday's name was already published on the film's poster, directed by David Corpuz (in black top) and Cenon Palomares (in white top, who also wrote the screenplay).

It's a Palanca-award winning material. Corpuz also directed "The Ordinary Things We Do", a short film finalist of Cinemalaya 2014... 

So, from short to full feature after a year, congrats!
