‘Babagwa’ in Vancouver, Hawaii

Paul Laxamana’s “Babagwa” will vie for the Dragons & Tigers Award for Young Cinema at the Vancouver International Film Festival, set Sept. 28-Oct. 4.

“Babagwa,” about Internet scammers, was an entry in the New Breed section of this year’s Cinemalaya fest.

It will compete for the Halekulani Golden Orchid for Best Narrative award at the Hawaii fest in October, too.  Bayani San Diego Jr.
