TRIVIA

Trivia

The film won the Audience Award in Black Movie Film Festival 2009 held in Geneva, Switzerland. The director of the film receives 5000 Swiss francs.

The film was nominated for the Sutherland Trophy in The Times BFI London Film Festival in 2008.

In the 11th Festival de Cine Asiatico de Barcelona (Barcelona Asian Film Festival 2009), the film won the D-Cinema Award "for developing an original and sharp critic to the media which entertains and makes you think, going beyond its political and format boundaries." The D-Cinema award is given to the most innovative and experimental Asian film shot in digital format.

The film is based on the grand prize winning screenplay "Jay" in the 2007 Cinemanila-FDCP Scriptwriting Contest.

The pink chick burial sequence was not originally part of the screenplay. It was included for thematic point after the pink chick was accidentally killed when the coffin's head panel closed down. This can be seen in the sequence when Jay Santiago, with Carlo the cameraman behind the coffin, is arranging the first meeting of Edward Navarro and Luzviminda Mercado in the wake for television exploitation.
