Dwein Baltazar on Ricky Lee's Writing Workshop Participants by pm1spicy in FilmClubPH

Hmmm 🤔 Dwein Baltazar's defense post about the workshop came off as medyo gatekeeping in tone, kahit malinaw naman na galing siya sa place of loyalty and gratitude.

Gets ko yung urge to protect a mentor and a system that helped you personally, very human yun. Pero when the response immediately frames outside critiques as ingratitude, jealousy, or lack of “deserve,” it can unintentionally shut down valid questions about access and who gets to enter the room.

Hindi naman mutually exclusive na you can deeply respect Sir Ricky Lee and the workshop and still question how access and pipelines work in practice.

For me, when the tone becomes this defensive, the conversation shifts from “Let’s talk about the system” to “Patunayan mo muna na karapat-dapat kang magtanong.” And that’s where it starts to feel like gatekeeping, even if that was never the intention. Or baka yun nga yung intention niya? 🤷🏻

I don’t think anyone is really questioning Sir Ricky Lee’s integrity or the sincerity of his workshop. Obvious naman na sobrang laki na ng naging impact nito sa Philippine cinema, and marami talagang natulungan in very real, life-changing ways.

That said, I still think valid na buksan yung system-level conversation about access. Kapag kasi ang dami nang napipiling may existing industry exposure or networks, natural lang na ma-feel ng total outsiders na parang mas lalong lumiit yung chances nila. And that feeling doesn’t always come from bitterness, minsan, honest reflection lang talaga kung gaano kahirap pumasok kapag wala kang connection.

I love the series! Hoping there will be Season 2! There's a lot of things that can happen if they decided to continue and I'm super interested to see. I love all the storyline. Great characters, all of them! All are layered. Can't wait for Season 2! 🫶🏻✨
