The Cinema One Originals Digital Film Festival 2011 was held last November 12, 2011 at the RCBC Plaza, Makati City. And it was the movie "Ka Oryang" which won the award for Best Picture and Best Director for Sari Lluch Dalena. Ka Oryang is about the suffering and the hardships of a woman who was a victim of torture during the Martial Law Era. It also won Best Cinematography for Neil Daza and Kiri Dalena.

On the other hand, the movie which bagged the most awards (including the Audience Choice Award, Special Jury Prize, Best Screenplay for Antoinette Jadaone) was "Six Degrees of Separation from Lilia Cuntapay". This semi-documentary chronicles the career of Lilia Cuntapay, the veteran actress who has appeared in countless local movies and TV appearances playing the almost same roles of aswang, yaya, or creepy old lady. She also won the award for Best Actress on the festival (shared the Best Actress award with Maricar Reyes for "Anatomiya ng Korupsyon").

On the Best Supporting Actress category, Geraldine Villamil (Six Degrees of Separation from Lilia Cuntapay). The Best Musical Score was awarded to both Teresa Barrozo for "Ka Oryang" and Ronald de Asis for "Sa Ilalim ng Tulay", Best Production Design to Kaloy Uypuanco for "My Paranormal Romance", Best Editing to Ruben Aquino (My Paranormal Romance) and Leo Valencia (Six Degrees of Separation from Lilia Cuntapay).

The Cinema One Originals Digital Film Festival is an annual film festival sponsored by Cinema One, which is owned by ABS-CBN, and has helped in the promotion of the local indie film industry, and has likewise lauched fresh new filmmakers into the scene. Previous champions in this festival include the phenomenal "Yanggaw" and "Wanted Border" which was filmed in Iloilo and directed by Ray Gibraltar, who is from Guimbal, Iloilo.
