A Marvelous Monday to You All!<\/p>\n
A.J. Lising wrote and directed \u201cPapa\u2019s Corner,\u201d a film that was an official selection at Film Invasion Los Angeles in 2025 and took home the Grand Jury Award for Best Supporting Performer in a Short Film, for Val Victa\u2019s performance as Papa. I was in the theater for this screening and even though I had already seen it as a member of the jury, after the film\u2019s beautiful ending I wept for nearly all of the credits.<\/p>\n
We did hold a Q&A at the theater with Erik Luminarias (producer & lead actor) and Patricia Esguerra (editor & script supervisor), but A.J. was not able to stay for the Q&A.
\nOnce again the Discover Indie Film podcasts gives me a chance to more than make up for a missed Q&A opportunity.<\/p>\n
It was a pleasure to talk to A.J. and I hope to see a lot more work from him in the future.<\/p>\n
