FDCP offers to help save ABS-CBN’s ‘Sagip Pelikula’

Chair Liza Diño: 'From what I’ve heard, their restoration program will stop, but their archiving will continue. We’re taking the cue from ABS-CBN.”

Since it was formed in 2015, the agency has now amassed over a thousand audiovisual content that will be made available online starting its launch in August, Diño said.

“It’s true that in terms of capacity, ABS-CBN managed to restore a lot more. This is because they are not only restoring films, but are also acquiring content. This gives them ROI . For example, if the Philippine embassy needs to screen classic films in an event, we pay them for screening fees. It’s part of the business structure of ABS-CBN,” she said.

Manet Dayrit, president of Central Digital Lab, who has been collaborating with ABS-CBN in its “Sagip Pelikula” campaign for over a decade, told Inquirer in an earlier interview: “It’s really only ABS-CBN that has championed restoration and preserving movies in the country—even if they’re not getting a return on investments on this. They know that it’s not the monetary returns that’s important, but it’s preserving our heritage.
