Dagatan’s third title won a cash prize of KRW15M (US$11,000) for winning the Bucheon Award. The project also took home the Blood Window Award, which includes expenses for the Blood Window project market in Ventana Sur, Argentina.
The Filipino-Singapore-Italy co-production Molder is aiming for a shooting date in the second half of 2025 and is looking for a major Italian actress.
Dagatan's 2023 In My Mother's Skin premiered in the Midnight Section of the Sundance Film Festival as the only non-English-language title in that section, and was later acquired by Amazon.
