‘public demand’ extends 50th MMFF run until January 14
By Cynthia Montojo
“We, at MMFF, are overwhelmed with continued support of public for festival’s 50th edition…due to public clamor, we have decided to extend theatrical run of MMFF movies to further showcase locally produced films truly impressive and artistically excellent,” 50th Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) overall chairman lawyer Don Artes stated MMFF is set to continue for additional week due to “insistent public demand.”
Originally scheduled to end today, Jan. 7, annual festival will extend theatrical run of its 10 official entries until Jan. 14 in select cinemas across Metro Manila area.
The official lineup for 50th edition of the MMFF includes “My Future You,” “Uninvited,” “Topakk,” “Hold Me Close,” “Espantaho,” “And the Breadwinner Is…,” “The Kingdom,” “Green Bones,” “Isang Himala” and “Strange Frequencies: Taiwan Killer Hospital.”
MMFF complimentary passes will also be honored until Jan. 14, making it easier for public to attend and support films.
In statement, Artes expressed hope that extended festival will boost earnings and continue to promote growth of local films.
Artes added in the announcement MMDA is hopeful that 2024 MMFF earnings will continue to increase.
In earlier statement, Artes expressed hope festival box-office sales for 2024 will at least match that of 2023 MMFF, which went on to become highest-grossing edition of all time with earnings surpassing P1 billion.
