Tanging Ina vs. Rosario for Best Picture


Who you want for 2010 MMFF’s Best Picture: Ang Tanging Ina Mo Last na “To or Rosario? I’d been hearing the buzz questioning how a comedy film outpowered a rated A epic drama film. According to one of MMFF board of judges, 70% was technical excellence and artistic value and the remaining 30% was for family and cultural values. Rosario fell short on the family and cultural values criteria.

Poll: Do You Agree with the MMFF Board of Jurors in Choosing ‘Tanging Ina’ for Best Picture Instead of ‘Rosario’?

    Pangasinan's Galicayo Festival

    Back in the late 1500's, an apparition of the Virgin Mary was believed to call on the people to build a church. The term manaoag, which means "to call", was then attributed to the town and eventually became its official name. The Dominicans viewed the appearance of the apparition as a miraculous event and they were inspired to build the church of Our Lady of Manaoag. The church's foundation, coupled with the story behind it, made Manaoag the religios center of Pangasinan.

    The people of Manaoag decided to hold a feast in honor of their patron saint, which was named as the “Galicayo Festival.” It is a province-wide cultural and religious celebration from December 1 to 9 in honor of Pangasinan’s patrones, Our Lady of Manaoag.
