A PROJECT of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts , the Tingin Southeast Asian Film Festival is back this year with a roster of award-winning films that celebrate the region's diverse myths, legends and folklore. Supported under NCCA 's Culture and Diplomacy program, Tingin is the country's longest-running and only film festival dedicated to Southeast Asian cinemas.
'Filmmakers have time and again drawn from the rich wellspring of folklore, to revisit old paradigms, to use it as a foil to new but harmful lifeways, or to serve as anchor for a society battered by scientism. Some of Southeast Asia's auteurs have built their most important work around the enduring tales and expositions of indigenous cultures still given to mystery,' said Maya Quirino, Tingin festival director.
