Pulling an upset over other high profile entries such as Ekstra at the most recent Cinemalaya Film Festival, Jerrold Tarog’s Sana Dati swept most of the awards in the Directors’ Showcase category, including Best Film, Best Director and Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role for TJ Trinidad.

The movie also brought home several technical awards for Best Sound (Roger TJ Ladro), Best Original Music Score (Jerrold Tarog), Best Editing (Pats Ranyo), Best Production Design (Ericson Navarro) and Best Cinematography (Mackie Galvez).
