EXHIBITION SCREENING: CINEMAONE ORIGINALS DECEMBER 8
IN COMPETITION, ROME FILM FESTIVAL 2012
More exotic but also much more radical proposals are both Filipino CinemaXXI: Tagalog, Gym Lumbrera, and Jungle Love, Sherad Anthony Sanchez. While the Filipino film earned a place on the international festival circuit, basically because the disclosure of directors like Brillante Mendoza and Raya Martin, but it seems that the quarry is still open. The two films now brings Roma pass away from civilization, in what seems like a celebration of the power of the jungle, and both deliberately deviate from the classic Aristotelian narrative. But there the similarities end. Filmed in black and white whose texture suggests the old Super 8, Tagalog is the logic of dreams and aesthetics of silent cinema. In fact, a bit like Independence, Raya Martin, the film has no dialogue and is designed from the interaction of big shots and close-ups, inhabited by an elderly couple, zealous guardians of memory and past. But like their dreams, or their nightmares, those images are invaded by others, from found footage, films tacking anonymous red by the action of time, stories of distant worlds and past, such as a European erotic film of the ’60s.
Speaking of eroticism, that is the central theme of Jungle Love, Sherad Anthony Sanchez, known Bafici, where two years ago was a mention in the Cinema section of the future, for his previous film, Sewer. Here, as in the former, there are explicit sex, in this case a couple of campers. But eroticism is not so much that as the director in the lust of the Philippine jungle, in the incessant intercourse foliage in the vaginal and phallic shapes discovered in caves and mountains. In this area almost fantastic circulate also other characters: a woman fleeing barefoot with a baby that is not theirs, some masked spirits who pursue young soldiers and some very real, suggesting a militarized zone, dangerous. Certain touches a catchy pop-gospel song on the radio, the emergence of cartography of the Philippines via google maps-provide new and puzzling elements to a film as free as irreverent.

SUPPORT LOCAL INDEPENDENT MUSIC
Wherever I go, just don’t lose hope and keep on supporting local independent music. Thank you Rob Cham for this illustration. He also did a bunch of Meiday posters for free, the header of this blog, and the miss meiday shirt. Everyone has to move on and respect my decision of quitting the music scene. Rob is ultimately one of the biggest supporters of the movement by doing stuff for free and thank you so much love for this one last illustration.
SUPPORT LOCAL INDEPENDENT MUSIC is a line I borrowed from my org in UP Diliman, UP Underground Music Community. The org will stage the Valentine special of the annual UP Fair so who knows, you might see me there again, haha let’s see.

Mei Bastes in Super8
I was 21 years old probably, or twenty two and this was shot in Super8 film by filmmaker Khavn De la Cruz. It is a lovely appeal, a letter, a message that I never ever really understood until a few years later.

‘Jungle Love’ in Main Competition for Rome Film Festival
http://www.romacinemafest.it/ecm/web/fcr/en/home/sections/cinemaxii-2012
I was supposed to fly to Rome tomorrow to attend presscon and world premiere of this film I was a big part of, Sherad Sanchez’ Jungle Love, but due to the problems I had to face in Manila, I decided not to go last minute.
I just wish they spelled my name right though.
There is news that we got into the biggest film festival in the States next year but I am still crossing my fingers. This is the second feature film I was part of with lead actress role, and I must say, I did some scenes here that I’m not capable of in real life. There is a one time joint Cinemanila and CinemaOne special screening for the Philippine premiere but it will not run in theaters. It’s too hardcore haha.
I might fly back to Manila for the screening. You see, there might be a career in this. I just ended my music prod career so might as well find something else.

NEW TRACK: Sandwich - “Mayday”
http://vandalsonthewall.blogspot.com/2012/08/new-track-sandwich-mayday.html
An anthem doesn’t attempt to be anything. It just is. And that’s everything I like about Sandwich’s break-out hit “Sugod.” It’s a song that aside from transcending social class and margins, tackles the quintessential hymn of all music festival goers and free gig campers, the glee that ensued in every beer-wasted rock n’ roll moshpits, and the fun and fulfilment live music brings to the table. While not everyone will agree with me, it is without any doubt, this generation’s answer to Juan Dela Cruz Band’s “Ang Himig Natin” or Sampaguita’s “Bonggahan”—an anthem that nurtures the wild side of youth culture in an authentic way, where it smells natural and bohemian.
Same can be said on “Mayday,” Sandwich’s attempt to rewrite “Sugod” with a surf-rock flair that recalls The Pixies and a poppier Sonic Youth. But instead on universalizing the collective embrace of every gig goers out there, Raymund and gang pays tribute on the culprit behind some of the best rock n’ roll parties and gigs thrown in recent memory. Yes, more than anything else, it’s a song about Mei Bastes—the tattooed events organizer who at one point in her life, brought free live music to a different dimension that united all music fans from all walks of life. It’s an anthem to get your hips to dancing and like every nostalgia fetishists, a recollection of a time when every Meiday gig is worth looking forward to. Watch it here:
