Multi-awarded actress Jaclyn Jose won best actress at the Cannes film festival for her performance in Brillante Mendoza’s Ma’ Rosa. Jaclyn played the role of a mother who was forced to sell drugs because of poverty before falling prey to corrupt police.
“The biggest challenge for me was not to act. Especially since I am coming from television shows where I play loud and campy characters,” Jaclyn told reporters.
Jaclyn accepted the award on stage and said she was “so surprised” to be named Best Actress.
