Director Statement

damgo sa kahitas-an comes from a personal story of trying to pursue arts instead of any academic professions. It's a scary choice to make, what if nobody supports me, or I didn't make it? It's a risk I'm willing to take. A choice that would entail me to bear the heaviest burdens life has to offer. It's a story of commitment and responsibility, reminding myself to not be afraid to do whatever I want even if I'm still not prepared for what may happen next.
