“Sa aspiring actors, you can only get better through the years. Just keep on acting. Keep on working. Keep reaching for your dreams. Just don’t stop,” said actress Ruby Ruiz, who is this year’s winner of the best actress award from the recently concluded 2019 Cinemalaya Philippine Independent Film Festival.
Ruiz plays her first lead role in the Theodore Boborol drama “Iska.” a story of a loving but impoverished grandmother of an autistic child. She tragically loses everything and turns into someone society reckons her to be.
