Cinema Rehiyon 2010 highlights regional filmmakers
After its successful run last year, the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) will once again bring you some of the best works of regional Filipino filmmakers in Cinema Rehiyon 2010 -- a non-competition film festival, and one of the seven flagship projects of this year’s Philippine International Arts Festival (PIAF) Ani ng Sining celebration.
With the majority of today’s formulaic indie films shot in the grimy streets, and in derelict buildings and slums of the metro, Cinema Rehiyon 2010 offers film enthusiasts with a breath of fresh air with its unique mix of films set in the filmmakers’ respective regions, and shot in their local dialects.
Also, the project gives both budding, and established regional filmmakers, the opportunity to showcase their unique cultures in cinematic form.
This year, expect a bigger, more diverse film festival with the participation of over 10 featured cities and regional centers from all over the country. The regional centers and cities to be featured this year are: Bacolod, Baguio, Bohol, Calabarzon, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Naga, Pampanga, Pangasinan, and Samar.
The Cinema Committee, headed by Dr. Miguel Rapatan, and Vice-Head Teddy Co, led the selection of standout short and full-length films from each participating regions. The chosen films will be screened in the culminating film festival to be held at the Tanghalang Manuel Conde in the Cultural Center of the Philippines from February 17 to 20. Entrance is free of charge. » more...

This year’s best literary works reflective of the lessons learned from such events will be put together in ANI 36.
Submissions must be typewritten or computer-encoded in Arial 12 points, double-spaced on short bond paper (8.5” x 11”), accompanied by a sheet containing the author’s five-sentence biographical note, contact numbers and address, and tax identification number (TIN) for payment purposes.
