Despite the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there is no canceling of this year’s Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF), although entries will not be shown on the big screen as it was before.<\/p>\n

MMFF spokesperson Noel Ferrer announced in his Instagram account that the festival will go online, in partnership with a “worldwide streaming service” to ensure that “the biggest, the most popular and the longest-running Filipino film festival will be happening everywhere – recreating happy traditions, and experiencing MMFF beyond-the-movies – together with the whole family.” The streaming service partner is yet to be announced as of writing.<\/p>\n

TULOY ANG METRO MANILA FILM FESTIVAL 2020! Yan ang napagdesisyunan sa katatapos pa lang na meeting ng Metro Manila Film Festival, na talagang well-attended at puno ng good vibes. Sa pangunguna ni Tita Boots Anson Rodrigo, nag-alay ang grupo ng dasal at commendation sa mga yumaong EXECOM members na sina Manay Ichu Vera Perez-Maceda at si Atty Rolando Duenas. Pinakamalaking balita na magiging ONLINE na ang MMFF sa taong ito at i-aannounce sa susunod na mga araw ang magiging ka-partner na worldwide streaming service ng mga entries ensuring that the biggest, the most popular and the longest running Filipino film festival will be happening everywhere – recreating happy traditions, and experiencing MMFF beyond-the-movies – together with the whole family. Nakaka-excite nga ito dahil ultimo ang President ng Cinemalaya Foundation na si Direk Laurice Guillen ay kumbinsido sa nakuhang malawakang streaming partner ng MMFF – baon ang mahahalagang learning nila sa nakaraang online Cinemalaya. But here are some important announcements sa mga gustong sumali pa sa mga finished film entries. Acknowledging the challenges ng film shooting ngayon, the deadline for finished film submission is moved from October 15 to NOVEMBER 15. Samantalang ang finished films based on the approved scripts ay may bagong deadline from Oct 31 to NOVEMBER 30. This will give producers and filmmakers more time na puliduhin pa ang kanilang mga entries. Magandang balita rin na WAIVED na ang mga entry fees ng mga isinubmit for consideration sa MMFF Summer Festival. They just have to fill out the forms for resubmission. Dahil sa ONLINE distribution – mas maraming Pilipino ang makakapanood ng mga pelikula -pero isang major na kunsiderasyon ang pag-iwas sa piracy na natugunan naman ng magiging partner ng MMFF at i-aannounce sa mga darating na araw!!! Tuloy ang Pasko at tuluy na tuloy ang MMFF ngayong Pasko!!! Magkikita-kita tayo ONLINE!!! #MMFF2020Updates #PEPAlerts #PEPTroika<\/a><\/p>\n
