San Diego Filipino Film Festival
The most anticipated installment of San Diego Filipino Cinema’s year-long programming, the San Diego Filipino Film Festival (SDFFF) is back on its third year. Held during Filipino American History Month in October, SDFFF is SDFC’s centerpiece event that aims to raise awareness for Filipino cinema as an important art form and a powerful tool for representation, education, and entertainment. SDFFF will bring San Diego communities together to celebrate diversity, culture, and heritage through cinema with a diverse mix of narrative features, documentaries, and short films. Last year, SDFFF became the largest curator and exhibitor of global Filipino films in the United States. In its third run this October, SDFFF has selected 103 films in total to participate both at the in-person main Festival screenings and in the virtual screenings of the Festival called Virtual Cinema Selects to be held after the in-person Festival takes place. SDFFF’s six-day in-person film screenings will have Q&As with the filmmakers, networking events, and the Visions & Voices panel discussion.
