Pacquiao wants Metro Manila Film Festival renamed
Published January 27, 2021 6:10pm By DONA MAGSINO, GMA News A bill seeking to rename the Metro Manila Film Festival has been filed by Senator Manny Pacquiao in the Senate earlier this week to address the issue of exclusivity. Senate Bill No. 2017 seeks to rebrand the annual event as the Philippine Film Festival. Despite MMFF’s commitments to enrich Philippine culture, to deepen our awareness of our historical heritage and traditional values, and to refurbish native arts, the event’s nomenclature depicts exclusivity, Pacquiao said in the explanatory note of the measure. The Metro Manila in the Metro Manila Film Festival conveys exclusiveness of the illustrious tradition and celebration of local film production to the country’s capital, he added.
