Who The Hell Is Xixi Maturan???

Age is merely a referential element to acknowledge one's generation. At 59, although I no longer hunger fame or glory, I just wish to keep my consciousness in focus. Doing best what I love , and filled with excitement even just to whip up a breakfast feast or smudging a song.
I always miss sitting around movie sets waiting for my cue or reading a spiel. So, when IzQitZoHandiWerks presented this video collage project basically to hawk this talent whose twilight years is at the wings to convene; I readily loved it and when they gave me the raw cut, there wasn't a minute before I spread it on Facebook. I never thought anyone would give a damn to ask WHO THE HELL IS XIXI MATURAN?

This says it all : ... a cryptic collage of photos of a third world creature lurking in the shadows of corrupt systems where everything has a price way beyond its worth and an industry where patronage leak kitsch and zombies are hailed as stars. xixi maturan is and never will be a star but rather a syndrome of an era of oblivious bald men paving straight paths to damnation.

JC played a straight-acting gay man caught in nasty broil of Ecstasy addiction and trade. The film was shot almost in its entirety in the confines of provincial jail where I played a hot headed old fag jailbird. At the conference, as we were introduced, she caught my attention. Well-made up and in a cocktail dress she amiably smiled at everyone , her name: CATALEYA SURIO. As we were given a rundown of role assignments, I realized that she was playing a transwoman in for some crime and detained in the male cell. This was because in the Philippines, a sexually re-assigned is still recognized with what is on one's birth certificate. Ah, alright. "As far as I remember, I was ALWAYS a girl", Cataleya nonchalantly declares in our online interview. Orphaned at a very young ...

Up Too Close ; Up Too Personal!

Such is in the context of poverty. Not just materially, but spiritually as well. UP TOO CLOSE : Every angle is magnified. Dissected. Trashed, bashed and promptly forgotten. UP TOO PERSONAL : Each fiber is stretched; exploited, hoarded for future misuse and left dried and with only a single [bad] breath. SUCH is the word to describe THIRD WORLD habits that define what is and what is not viable to anyone within its realm. One cannot have a choice, one must concede to the wails of hunger. If only to be part of it and then not for a price, then this pearly islands of corrupt officials and starstruck bastards would have at least some dignity to speak of and then dream about cornucopia. At 59, I have seen a lot.
