in honour of his uncle Victor Oteyza, one of the Philippine Thirteen Moderns.
His wife Katrin and three sons Kidlat, Kawayan and Kabunyan, are also artists and take part in the running of the space. With its eccentric architecture, VOCAS is the polar opposite of Bencab’s modern white cube..." - A Cloud Over Baguio by Ringo Bunoan, Researcher for the Philippines http://www.aaa.org.hk/Diaaalogue/Details/864

Because of his achievement as a Filipino, I can feel that film industry is kind of huge in their country. I don't know Kidlat Tahimik personally nor haven't seen any of his films. But by just looking at his get up, I can feel that he creates amazing and cool films in his country! It's about time shows the world the kind of storytelling he has so we can appreciate it too. Producers in Hollywood should give him a chance to prove himself in the world of directing!
