“We, at the MMFF, are overwhelmed with the continued support of the public for the festival’s 50th edition. Due to public clamor, we have decided to extend the theatrical run of the MMFF movies to further showcase the locally produced films that are truly impressive and artistically excellent,” said concurrent MMFF overall Chairman Atty. Don Artes.
Artes is also hopeful that the 2024 MMFF earnings will continue to increase. Vice Ganda dramedy And The Breadwinner Is... is reported to be the top grossing film this season with over ₱270 million as of January 3, per PEP Troika.
Complimentary passes will be honored until January 14.
According to MMFF's page, "Proceeds from the MMFF go to a number of beneficiaries in the film industry, such as the Movie Workers Welfare Foundation (Mowelfund), the Film Academy of the Philippines, the Motion Picture Anti-Film Piracy Council, the Optical Media Board, and the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP)."
