Daniel de la Cruz

Daniel, a 23-year-old filmmaker hailing from Guimbal, Iloilo, a quaint town nestled in the heart of the Philippines, where the art of filmmaking has woven itself into the very fabric of its culture and traditions. As a proud member of the Guimbal Ifilm Society, pioneers in community-based filmmaking, Daniel contributes to... a rich tapestry of short independent films that have not only graced local screens but also earned acclaim on international platforms. Graduating with top honors as a Magna Cum Laude in Bachelor of Arts in Broadcasting, Daniel now channels his fervent passion for filmmaking while concurrently dedicating himself to serving children in need through an esteemed organization. His cinematic oeuvre is predominantly centered around the narratives of women and children, offering a poignant and often unflinching exploration of a society still entrenched in patriarchal norms. Renowned for his innovative filmmaking techniques that seamlessly blend semiotics with dark comedy, Daniel's works resonate deeply, challenging societal constructs and prompting introspection. He firmly believes that art's purpose extends beyond mere solace; it is a powerful tool to unsettle the comfortable and provoke meaningful change. He is known for his award-winning works such as "Ang Bistida Ni Ana Sa Mata Nga Pula", "Judith", and "Purya, Usog".
