Hey D3! Did you know that there are a few Filipino film festivals in America?! If you love movies, and you love the Filipino culture, you should totally check it out! Right now the next event is based in Los Angeles which has been running for 23 years. These festivals are run by nonprofit Filipino groups in order to promote awareness for Filipino or Filipino-American produced films. A lot of these movies are critically acclaimed! In the summertime, New York City hosts an Asian Film Festival and three Filipino movies have impressed the critics. These movies were called Hamog (Haze), Apocalypse Child and Honor Thy Father. Hollywood has an issue with minorities -- especially Asians for awhile now. But with these rising Filipino stars perhaps we’ll see a future of more diversity. Be sure to check out these film festivals in order to promote the cause, so click on the link for any updates if you are interested! Keane MacadeagPublic Relations Officer
