Erik Matti and Nestor Abrogena criticized the FDCP for “misleading” the public on who worked to get Filipino films acquired by Netflix. | NGunoINQ

Matti questioned the statement, saying that he was under the impression “that FDCP facilitated and was party to the acquisition of 15 new Filipino films by Netflix.”

“It’s the kind of ambiguous [doublespeak] that’s common nowadays not just with our government but also in the Trump empire,” Matti remarked. “A [doublespeak] that people saying it can easily take back if and when questions arise regarding the veracity of the statements made.” He also asked directors to verify who brokered the deals with the streaming service. Joey Reyes, Perci Intalan, Paul Soriano and Nestor Abrogena said in the comments section it was their studios who scored the deals.
