Cinemalaya 2009
Posted on July 16, 2009, under Event, Indie Film, Movie.
Cinemalaya 2009 independent film festival will be held starting this Friday, July 17 – 26, 2009 at Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP). There will be ten films that will compete in full length and short film category.
You can check the schedule of screening of the full length movies thru this link. Single ticket price per movie screening is only Php 100. Students will have 50% off on all the movie package screening including the single ticket movie screening. For details of ticket price, you may call call 551-7930 or 832-1125 local 1800 to 1808, 832-3704 or 832-1125 local 1409.
I will try to work out my schedule so I can watch the films of Cinemalaya 2009. I prefer to watch indie films these days as the commercial pinoy movies are so predictable and have low quality in terms of story. Indie films present various social issues which which help the public to be enlighten.
I also read somewhere that indie film “Kinatay” was originally included in the ten films competing in the full length category but its director Mr. Brillante Mendoza back out in the last minute. If you like to watch the indie film “Kinatay”, it will be shown on July 30, 2009 at the UP Film Institute (Cine Adarna).
