posted in: All News, Philippines | 0

The reopening of cinemas throughout the country was what we have been yearning for since last year. Its shutdown beginning in March has crippled Philippine Cinema, and the same can be said for the global film industry.

But moviegoers were still afraid to go out and experience films together with audiences in an enclosed area — cinemas were 90 percent empty.
