The Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) is an annual film festival organized by the Metro Manila Development Authority.
Except for its first edition in 1975, the MMFF runs
from Christmas Day through New Year's Day and into first weekend of January in
the following year.
Movie theaters show only films that are approved by the
MMFF's jurors during the course of the festival.
As the MMFF marks its fiftieth edition this year, let
us recall the official entries that have been selected for the much-awaited
event since 1975.
