    It was sheer pleasure and honor for us to have our project "Tu Bada Royega" to be the Award Winner of the Blackboard International film festival - November 2022 edition, in the Best Music Video category. Thank you for appreciating our efforts and I look forward to connect with like minded talents in the future.
