Louder Than Before - 12th International Silent Film Festival Manila Showing Soon At SM Cinema

Silence does not always mean boring, this has been proven with the 12 years of the International Silent Film Festival that continues to charm attendees and for this year with a new venue for its screenings. This event has been loved by viewers by bringing in classic silent movies from different parts of the world, including the Philippines, and accompanied by live musical performances.
Established in 2007 as the first of its kind in Asia, the ISFFM promises to bring once more to Manila film buffs and music aficionados an extraordinary experience.
From the 1890’s to the 1920’s, audiences around the world were enchanted by the magic of watching soundless images on a screen accompanied by live music played by different performing artists.
SM Cinema Celebrates the Brilliance of Philippine Cinema with Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino 2018

Ever imagined a life without the Internet? In Ang Babaeng Allergic sa Wifi, a girl named Norma is suddenly diagnosed with Electromagnetic Hyper-sensitivity.

The movie is directed by Jun Robles Lana and stars Sue Ramirez, Jameson Blake, and Marcus Paterson.
Train Station - A World Record Movie To Be Screened In The Philippines

I would not have imagined a film that will be made by 40 directors and still make a interesting and meaningful movie. It took years in development and collaboration for this film, Train Station, to be a reality.
Bringing in a lot of people for this project is no easy feat as it involves a lot of coordination and continuity. As it starts with an unnamed character in a Train station just described as "Man in Brown" goes on a series of decisions with varying outcomes in his future.
This is where creativity comes to play with the individual directors who would fit the story according to the place and culture. The non-linear style of story is not new but since there is the diversity involved, things becomes unexpected. Though some parts were very short, they still had something to share to the film.
