This is the first short film I've completely written and helped produce, directed by Jeremiah Palma and written by myself (Leah Cioco) and John Bruce Usan.Iska revolves around Sofia, a born and bred probinsyana (province-born and bred individual) from Bicol (a rural community), who moved to Metro Manila (the capital city of the Philippines) for a full-ride scholarship at a university and discovers the fun side and the dark side of being an ‘iskolar ng bayan’ (scholar of the country).
