Kristine Kintana is a production manager, at least when she is not acting, designing costumes, subtitling or doing anything in fact, for the films of Lav Diaz and Khavn for the most part. Occasionally she also programs for festivals like Cinemanila and QCinema.
On the occasion of our #TheKhavnProject, we speak with her about her life, career, programming, working in movies, the way the industry works in the Philippines, the festival reality after the pandemic, and of course, Khavn.
Can you give us some info on your background on cinema?
My first course was computer science in the University of the Philippines in Los Baños, and then I was kicked out. I had to move back to Manila, and start again from scratch. I ended up studying Mass Communications in Far Eastern University. It took me eight years in total to finish college.
