Joyce Bernal to direct simpler but technically complex SONA

Filmmaker Joyce Bernal will direct President Rodrigo Duterte's 2020 State of the Nation Address (SONA), which she describes as simpler but technically more complex due to health and safety measures.

Bernal, who has directed the SONA for the past two years, visited the Batasang Pambansa on Thursday ahead of the event scheduled for July 27.

She mentioned that while the format will be simpler, technical challenges include managing remote areas and video conferencing.
