MANILA—The Yolanda-set “Kun Maupay Man It Panahon” and crime drama “On The Job: The Missing 8” led the winners in the sophomore edition of Pinoy Rebyu Awards on Friday.
The Pinoy Rebyu Awards is organized by the recently formed Society of Filipino Film Reviewers (SFFR), which currently consists of 38 active reviewers of Philippine cinema.
The group named the winners and runners-up across categories through its social media pages. Notably, the lead and supporting performance categories were not divided into genders. Men and women actors were included in the same list.
“Kun Maupay Man It Panahon” scored five trophies, including Best Film, Best Film Editing, Best Cinematography, Best Production Design, and Best First Feature for director Carlo Francisco Manatad.
The film was lauded for its “effective depiction of the collective trauma of disaster survivors as seen through the eyes of three protagonists navigating a labyrinth of state inefficiency, mass hysteria, and magic.”
Meanwhile, “On The Job: The Missing 8” tallied four wins, hauling Best Director for Erik Matti, Best Screenplay for Matti and Michiko Yamamoto, Best Lead Performance for John Arcilla, and Best Ensemble Performance.
SFFR recognized Matti for “his masterful orchestration of technical and artistic elements of a film that grippingly depicts widespread political manipulation of media and the police”; and Arcilla for his layered performance as a radio announcer whose initially unquestioned beliefs have taken a different turn.”
Below is the full list of nominees in the 2nd Pinoy Rebyu Awards.
