The awarding ceremony of the
Gawad Tanglaw at the Carlos Palanca Auditorium of the University of
Perpetual Help-Las Piñas last weekend officially signaled the start
of the 2008 awards season for cinema excellence.
Cherry Pie Picache capped the
best lead actress award for her performance in the film Foster
Child, beating the likes of Jaclyn Jose and Irma Adlawan. Picache,
who came in a chocolate brown ensemble, dedicated her award to the
real-life foster parents who inspired the making of the film.
“This is for them, who despite the meager income they get, make
life meaningful for the children under their care, preparing them
for a better life ahead.”
