MANILA, Philippines—Comedienne Eugene
Domingo won best actress honors at the 3rd Pau International Film Festival held
in France over the weekend for her work in Marlon Rivera’s “Ang Babae sa Septic
Tank.”
Domingo attended the festival with
producer Joji Alonso, who announced her achievement on Facebook.
Domingo received the trophy created by
sculptor Chahab.
“Septic Tank” competed with films from
Romania (“Best Intentions”), Russia (“Chapiteau-Show”), Japan (“Himizu”),
Ukraine (“House with a Turret”) and Sweden-Denmark-France (“Play”).
According to an online report, the Pau
fest’s goal is to “introduce politically engaged films” to the French audience.
Earlier this year, Domingo topped an
online poll and won the best actress award (People’s Choice) at the 6th Asian
Film Awards held in Hong Kong—also for “Septic Tank.”
She is one of the honorees in “Indie
Bravo: 3rd Inquirer Indie Tribute” to be held Monday night at the paper’s Makati
office.
