The Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) selected eight films for the upcoming Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino, now on its second year
Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino (PPP) returns on August 15 to 21 with a diverse set of films pushing the envelope of the movie genres that Filipinos grew to love.
"The PPP proved to be such a success especially in getting our Fillipino audiences to support a full lineup of Filpino films in one week of playdate, and we are proud that this year, we get to showcase more films of different and elevated genres that will not just entertain but will encourage discussions among the Filipino audience. There's a film for everyone and we are looking forward to everyone's support again to all of our films," said FDCP chairperson and CEO Liza Diño.
