Opposite Mario O'Hara, he co-wrote the screenplay for Lino Brocka's film Insiang (1976), the first Philippine film to be shown at the Cannes Film Festival in 1978. He is the author of several critically acclaimed books - Hagkis ng Talahib (1971), Pagsalubong sa Habagat (1986 National Book Award for Poetry), and Pingkian at Apat Pang Aklat ng Tunggalian (1997 National Book Award for Poetry).
A Palanca awardee 10 times over, he has also won the grand prize for the Epic Narrative in the Cultural Center of the Philippines Literary Competition, and was hailed Makata ng Taon by the Surian ng Wikang Pambansa. He also received the Gawad Manuel L. Quezon[1] and Pambansang Alagad ni Balagtas.
Recipient of major awards for his poetry and prose, the author presents his third collection of poems. Antonio, says a critic, is the most persuasive voice in contemporary Tagalog poetry, a poet who speaks for the oppressed, whether peasant or worker, without any touch of affectation.
Antonio's Pingkian at Apat Pang Aklat ng Tunggalian was 1997 National Book Award for Poetry and 1998 Gintong Aklat Awardee for Literature.
