The ISTANBUL FILM AWARDS is one of the best few film award giving bodies. It is very honest and fair in deciding their winners. The Philippines is happy. We are happy to have won the BEST FEATURE FILM( Horror) in festival. I believe the only one in Southeast Asia. It is the 4th country and the 2nd festival which has given us this recognition. I salute the festival director, Tarik and the entire team IFA. I highly recommend this festival. 5 stars? No. 6 star? Yes.
