More days to catch "Nuwebe"

Film director Joseph Laban grants an interview for television during the gala premiere at the Cultural Center of the Philippines.

Laban talks about his provocative film inspired by the true story of a young girl (played by Barbara Miguel) abused by her own father (Jake Cuenca). She became a mother at nine, her story documented by Laban for a TV feature last year.

What they say about "Nuwebe":


 “Jake and Nadine surprise audiences with their courageous performances... must see are “Babagwa”, “Nuwebe” and “Purok 9... the best Cinemalaya so far!” - Director Joey Javier Reyes

 “dark, disturbing and well made.” - Pam Pastor

“an example of great Philippine cinema.”  - Martin Mayuga
