Sign up now for Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino online

The Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino is a national film festival that features screenings of Filipino movies in all theaters throughout the country. The Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) leads this event. 

This film festival began in 2017 and since then has screened 33 Filipino films, with more than 2.5 million viewers, and earned over 420 million pesos at the box office. Now in its fourth year, the PPP has moved online due to the pandemic that has also affected the film industry. 

According to FDCP, "From October 31 to December 13, 2020, we will be holding PPP4 through an online streaming platform managed by FDCP called the FDCP Channel with the theme “Sama All”. In the spirit of unity and supporting one Philippine Cinema, PPP4 will showcase over 170 Filipino films (90 full-length films and 80 short films) - a curation of the most memorable titles (classics and contemporary) from local to regional film festivals, filmmakers, and producers, award-winning and trailblazer titles, and premium titles which have not been shown or had a limited release in the Philippines. 

With Filipino films struggling to find platforms to showcase their content in these extraordinary times, it is our goal for PPP4 to be the bridge that engages the audience to watch our local films. While we support international platforms like Netflix, PPP4 @ FDCP CHANNEL aims to feature films that promote diversity - regional, classics, documentaries, and those that champion the Filipino identity."

From November 20 to December 13, paid subscribers can watch over 90 films in their Main Feature Film showcase. Aside from movies, there will also be special events such as PPP Film Talks, PPP Learn, PPP Talkbacks, and many others.
