EDUARDO Roy Jr.
Eduardo Roy Jr.’s Cinemalaya 2013 winner, “Quick Change,” got a rave review from US industry paper Variety. Critic Richard Kuipers described “Quick Change” as a “well-crafted” drama, noting, “the obsessive desire for youth and beauty [in] Manila’s transgender community is examined with documentary-like authenticity.” He hailed it as a “nonsensationalistic slice of life on the margins.” The film is in the Panorama section of the ongoing Berlin fest, with another Filipino film, Jay Altarejos’ “Unfriend.” “Quick Change” competes in the Vesoul (France) Festival of Asian Cinema Feb. 11-18.
