Istorya ng Pag-asa film fest continues to inspire in 2020

“We can change the conversation and build our nation with hope that transcends gender, social status, political party, religion or region, or business affiliation. It is our hope that through Istorya ng Pag-asa—lalo na iyong Istorya ng Pag-asa Film Festival—Filipinos will be united around the common values of hope, of perseverance, deep faith, and the goodness of humanity. Kasi iyon iyong talagang underlying theme ng bawat kuwento.” ~Vice President Leni Robredo

Now in its third year, inspiring stories of different people all over our country will get another chance to participate and win cash prizes plus a chance for their short films to be screened at Ayala Malls Cinemas nationwide.

INPFF is a nationwide film competition for original short documentaries featuring extraordinary stories of ordinary Filipinos. Its aim is to give a platform for Filipino filmmakers showcasing true and inspiring stories of hope.


The 2020 edition of the nationwide, all-digital film competition is being launched this Nov. 27.

A joint initiative of the Office of Vice President Leni Robredo and the Ayala Foundation, Inc., the INPFF will mark its third run in 2020, fully intending to surpass the success of its first two years.
