It is that time of the year again where Filipino movie buffs are served with the best Indie Films. This year, Cinemalaya will feature twenty-five films - fifteen full length films and ten short films.
Now on its eight year, Cinemalaya is a project of the Cinemalaya Foundation, CCP, Film Development Council of the Philippines and Ecolink Investments, Inc. It is an all-digital film festival and competition that aims to discover, encourage, and honor cinematic works of Filipino filmmakers that boldly articulate and freely interpret the Filipino experience with fresh insight and artistic integrity.

Here is the Cinemalaya Schedule:
JULY 20, FRIDAY
6:15pm – OPENING FILM : MARIO O’HARA’s ‘BABAE SA BREAKWATER’ at the CCP
Main Theatre (Tanghalang Nicanor Abelardo)
BABAE SA BREAKWATER is a film about a man Basilio (Kristoffer King),
who escapes from provincial Leyte to the slums of Manila with his younger
brother Buboy (Alcris Galura). Residing in the shanty town tenements beneath
the tourist-infested breakwater of Manila, Basilio falls in love with a
prostitute Paquita (Katherine Luna) a girl who started whoring so early in her
life that at her relatively young age she’s already played out, her body full
of sexual diseases and open sores. Their relationship is troubled by the
apparent poverty and the more impending threat of the slums’ jealous protector,
ex-cop Dave (Gardo Versoza).
