Ni ARCHIE LIAO

AARANGKADA na ang ang ika-6 na edisyon ng Film Ambassador’s Night ngayong taon para bigyan ng pagpupugay ang mga manggagawa ng pelikulang Pinoy na nagbigay ng karangalan sa bansa sa iba’t ibang prestihiyosong international film festivals abroad.

Gaganapin ang naturang okasyon sa  bagong bihis na Manila Metropolitan Theater sa Pebrero 27, 2022.

Mula nang simulan ang inisyatibong ito ng FDCP, 319 na ang nabigyan ng natatanging pagkilala.

Sa taong ito, 77 naman ang madadagdag sa nasabing listahan.

“It’s another year’s worth of victories with the best of the best Filipino films being recognized around the world, highlighting our cultural heritage in cinema over the years. As we have continued to reach altitudes on the global stage, we applaud each filmmaker who shared his or her talent, creativity, and passion to the world. We created this night to celebrate you,” ani FDCP Chairperson at CEO, Liza Diño.

Tulad ng nakaraang edisyon, ipagkakaloob ng FDCP ang Camera Obscura Award, ang pinakamataas na karangalan para sa manggagawang may di matatawarang ambag sa pagsusulong ng industriya.

Sa taong ito, magkakamit din ng Gabay ng Industriya Award (Ilaw ng Industriya and Haligi ng Industriya) ang mga tinitingalang haligi ng industriya.

Ang 6th Film Ambassador’s Night na isang exclusive at invitational event ay mapapanood sa FDCP Channel.

Ilan sa pinakamalaking pararangalan sina John Arcilla  para pelikulang On the Job: The Missing 8, ang mga pelikulang  Whether the Weather is Fine (Kun Maupay Man It Panahon) ni Carlo Franciso Manatad at Gensan Punch ni Brillante Mendoza.
