Our sincerest condolences to Norli's family and friends.
Norli, through his Round Eyeglass project, was the first to give us a
venue to screen our short films together in public way back February
17, 2006, our fourth anniversary. That was way before we had our
week-long screening at the Robinsons Galleria Indie Sine (June 11-17,
2008) and special screening at the Cultural Center of the Philippines
(CCP) Little Theater (July 17, 2008). Now that we're working on our
first full-length feature project, "Handumanan" (Remembrance), it is
just appropriate to dedicate this in memory of Norli Lalo, the artist.
Paalam, Round Eye Glass...
