This month Cinema ’76 Film Society presents works from some of the most promising independent filmmakers here and abroad.
Previously playing until May 12 are films from award-winning
director Lem Lorca. Among these films are, Lorca’s “Water Lemon” starring
Junjun Quintana, Tessie Tomas, and Alessandra de Rossi and his Cinemalaya 2012
entry “Into Syokoy” starring JM de Guzman, LJ Reyes, and Joross Gamboa.
From May 13 to May19, Singaporean director Ken Kwek takes
the spotlight with his recent film “Unlucky Plaza”. The comedy thriller about a desperate man and
a hostage taking gone awry had its premiere in the prestigious Toronto Film
Festival last year. The film, which stars Epy Quizon in a critically acclaimed
performance, had its local theatrical run last month. Audiences who might have
missed the chance to see “Unlucky Plaza” will have the opportunity to catch the
film with its guaranteed one week run at Cinema ’76.
Finally,
from May 20 thru May 26, the first two films by Gino M. Santos
--"The Animals" and "#Y" -- will be screened. Since that time, he has
directed "Ex With Benefits," "Lila," and the forthcoming film "Love Me
Tomorrow" with Piolo Pascual.
