    Bulong (Whisper)

    Filipinos are known for their creativity.

    One contemporary proof of this claim is a 24-year old Filipino named


    Joaquin Pedro Gomez Valdes. He finished a degree in Film and Audio-
    Visual Communication at the University of the Philippines. As part of his
    graduation requirements, he needed to submit a major project called a
    thesis.

    He then set his creativity to work and came up with a short film
    entitled Bulong (Whisper). He submitted his work to different
    international competitions, a couple of months after its completion.

    His efforts paid off when Bulong which talked about lifes purpose
    and the peoples freedom whether to live that purpose or not, was named
    Best Thesis. It was also given the Felicianio Award. It gained
    recognition abroad when it was chosen to represent the Philippines in the
    prestigious Short Film Corner, Festival de Cannes, in France. It also won
    the Best Short Narrative in New Beijing International Movie Week.

    Joaquin Valdez, exemplifying excellence, made something not just to


    meet requirements in order to graduate. He made a short film that
    brought pride to the country. He exemplifies a world class Filipino.
