The award was presented to Roy, his main actors Ronwaldo Martin and Hasmine Killip, and producers Almond Derla and Ferdinand Lapuz.
Killip also stunned at a red-carpet event, wearing a revealing white gown designed by John Herrera.
The Venice Days is patterned after the Cannes Directors’ Fortnight of the Cannes Film Festival in France, and features “quality cinema, without restriction, with an eye for innovation, research, originality of expression, the independent and productive independence.” The Venice Film Festival is the oldest in the world and is part of the “Big Three,” which also includes Cannes and the Berlin International Film Festival in Germany.
