TO COMMEMORATE the centennial of Filipino films, the Filipinas Heritage Library has partnered with Samsung Electronics Philippines to present Hidden Cinema: The Virtual Experience of Philippine Cinema’s Centenary. The exhibit showcases the country’s rich yet unfamiliar movie heritage. “The Hidden Cinema reveals an exciting dimension in our art history. It offers refreshing perspectives and an alternative experience to mainstream movies,” said Jun Guevarra, Samsung Product Marketing Head for AV/TV in a press release. The event puts the spotlight on genres such as the short film, documentary, and propaganda. Samsung TVs take center stage in the exhibit. Curated by Nick Deocampo, the exhibit also coincides with the celebrated film artist, historian, and professor’s 35th year as a documentarist. Hidden Cinema is on view until Sept. 9 at the Ayala Museum in Makati. For details, visit the Ayala Museum’s official website and Facebook page.
