00:00You know, while I was watching the documentary, I said to myself,
00:10you're the daughter of a grandmother, of course, but you're really the daughter of your mother.
00:13She's a beautiful woman inside and out.
00:15And she's very brave. She knows what she wants.
00:18She knows that she's missing something.
00:19I'm not here, but I worked for you.
00:21I'll go home because I want to be close to you.
00:24I mean, you'll see.
00:26How much of you, when you think about it, Marianne,
00:29how big of a person is your mother?
00:33She's big.
00:34Now I understand that I have a child, I'm working,
00:38how important you are, and it's hard to separate yourself,
00:42that you need to work, but you also need to take care of your child.
00:45There are times when we don't have a choice.
00:47You just have to choose one.
00:48I'm lucky now that I can manage to take care of my child and work.
00:52Yes, the constant balancing act, right?
00:56And you play Emy here in Balota.
01:00She's a teacher, right?
01:03You said earlier that there will be an election,
01:06the people will vote, and after watching this movie,
01:09we all know that the election will come.
01:12Talk more about your character.
01:14Who is Emy?
01:17Emy is a teacher who has a conviction
01:20that no matter what price you give her,
01:22she won't sell her vote
01:24because she knows that her vote is important.
01:26And because of that vote, a lot can change,
01:29not just for herself, for her family,
01:31but for the people who need change for the country.
01:36How much of Emy is your character?
01:41More than half.
01:44It's almost all the same.
01:46Resolution, love for family.
01:48And you fight for what's right.
01:49Yes.
01:50Because as a person, I'm very transparent.
01:53Sometimes, it's a good thing that I've changed.
01:56Sometimes, I pretend.
01:58But before, what you see is what you get.
02:00I'll say what's inside of me and I won't filter it
02:02because I want it to be true.
02:04And that's me.
02:06Having said that, you used to be like that.
02:09But you said that now, you've learned
02:11what have you become.
02:13You're more careful now.
02:14It's like now, you'll choose what you'll fight for.
02:17Not all fights need to be fought.
02:19There are times that before you fight,
02:21you need to have weapons.
02:23You need to think first.
02:24Because when you're young, you'll get hurt.
02:26If something happens, you'll act right away.
02:28So now, while you're growing up, you're learning.
02:30Will I do this?
02:31What will be my consequence?
02:33Will I be able to fight?
02:34Or will I just stop?
02:35Will I just let it go?
02:36Or will I fight?
02:37So now, it's like that.
02:38And now, you have your children.
02:40Yes.
02:41It's different.
02:42The perspective is different.
02:43It's different.
02:44And not all fights are won.
02:45No, it's not.
02:46It's beautiful.
02:47Yes.
02:49All of us change in that aspect.
02:51When you're young,
02:52yes, pride.
02:53Why did I choose this?
02:55Let's accept it.
02:56And we learn that.
02:58But here at EMI,
02:59it's not just about fighting.
03:01It's about yourself and your feelings.
03:03Right?
03:04And what she's fighting for
03:06is a principle for the country.
03:08You won here.
03:11Yes, right?
03:13You won Best Actress.
03:15Wow!
03:17Can I have that?
03:18It's beautiful.
03:20How?
03:21Wow!
03:23One of the most
03:24award-giving bodies,
03:27Cinemalaya.
03:28I won't hold it for you
03:29because it's a bit heavy.
03:31We'll put it here.
03:33How do you feel about that?
03:35When you were called that night.
03:37I'll just rewind to what happened.
03:40Because that night,
03:42Direk and I talked.
03:44I told Direk,
03:45Direk,
03:46I'm excited for tomorrow
03:48but I'm nervous.
03:49Direk said,
03:50No, Marian.
03:51No matter what happens,
03:53we know what you did in the movie.
03:55We know who you are.
03:57He has that in him.
03:58And on the way,
04:00Dong was with me in the car.
04:02We saw something on the way.
04:04It was like a Bible verse.
04:06I was saying,
04:07For you, for you.
04:08I said,
04:09What is the Lord's message for me?
04:11We were near the cinema.
04:13Dong held my hand.
04:14He said,
04:15My love,
04:16No matter what happens,
04:17you are my best actress.
04:19I said,
