Eddie Garcia Bags Best Actor Award at Asia Pacific Film Festival 2012

Actor Eddie Garcia won the Best Actor trophy at the 55th Asia Pacific Film Festival 2012 for portraying the moody gay man Rene with a sickly dog named 'Bwakaw'.

The veteran actor personally accepted the award and received a standing ovation during the awards night held on December 15 at the Venetian Resort Hotel in Macau, China.
 
Jun Lana's Bwakaw is indeed a crowd favorite for being humorous despite its poignant plot which involves a cancer-stricken dog and an old gay man who came out of the closet too late. And because of that and a whole lot more, this little film from the Philippines is making rounds and receiving applauds on film festivals abroad. In fact, it's quite of a contender in Oscar's best foreign film.

Congrats Manoy!
