Judy Ann’s Ploning is RP’s Entry to the 2009 Oscar Awards
Five members of a special committee tasked to select the country’s entry which is headed by National Artist for Film Eddie Romero as chairman narrowed down the possible nominee to two films, Ploning and Caregiver. In a meeting last August 20, three members voted for Ploning and two members chose Caregiver.
Indie films Tribu, Pisay, Endo and Serbis were included in the six-film short list.
Both Ploning and Caregiver received the highest grade of “A” from the Cinema Evaluation Board earlier this year.
