Edgardo Parada‘s quirky, humorous films have an overarching message resounding in every second. Born and raised in Metro Manila, Philippines, but later migrating to New York City, Parada was exiled in New Jersey. Despite his roller coaster journey, he still managed to obtain a degree in BFA at the Tisch School of Arts, and produced two films that was recognized worldwide–“Dirty Blue Balloons” (2004) and “If Everything Was Said” (2006), for his thesis at New York University. Both of these films, among others by Parada, are well worth watching.
