FilmPhilippines Film Philippines aims to promote the Philippines as a prime filming destination and location site. Presented by the Film Development Council of the Philippines

Under the administrative and technical supervision of the Film Development Council of the Philippines, the Film Philippines Office facilitates the promotion of the Philippines as a highly-viable filming destination for international productions. The FilmPhilippines Office (FPO) provides one-stop-shop assistance for government permits, and inter-agency endorsements to international film, television and other audiovisual productions coming to shoot in the Philippines. Through its banner program FILMPHILIPPINES, FPO offers location incentive programs to attract a range of international film and audiovisual projects for full-on production and post-production in the Philippines, as well as foreign producers looking to do international co-productions with Filipino producers.

1) Maximize the countryโ€™s comparative advantage as a location site for international film and television content production, to promote tourism and investment in the Philippines

2) Streamline and expedite processing of requirements for foreign filmmakers seeking to film in the Philippines, for ease of business and flexibility

3) Strengthen artistic and technical linkages and collaboration among foreign film producers and artists with the Philippinesโ€™ homegrown pool of film workers and film production teams

4) Promote Filipino films for distribution in global markets and festivals abroad

5) Generate revenue for Filipino film artists and production and technical service providers in the country

FILIPIร‘ANA LOCAL PREMIERE AT CINEMALAYA 2026

After acclaimed international premieres at the Berlin International Film Festival and the Sundance Film Festival, Filipiรฑana finally comes home as the Closing Film of the 22nd Cinemalaya Philippine Independent Film Festival.

Set in an exclusive country club, the film follows Isabel, a young employee whose fascination with the club president leads her to uncover the darkness beneath its luxurious faรงade.

As a grantee of Film Philippines Incentives (FPI), we congratulate the team on this local premiere.

Catch Filipiรฑana at SM Cinemas nationwide starting August 26, 2026.

Let us continue to celebrate Filipino stories.
