‘Children’s Show’ in Iraq

Roderick Cabrido’s “Children’s Show” is in the lineup of the 3rd Duhok International Film Festival, ongoing in Iraqi Kurdistan until Sept. 16. It’s the first Filipino film to be shown in the Iraqi autonomous region in decades, says producer Joseph Israel Laban. The fest, held in the ancient cradle of civilization Mesopotamia, “aims to showcase innovative films of high artistic value … made throughout the world.” Bayani San Diego Jr.
