As the anticipated Spring Film Festival (SFF) Celebrates its eighteenth year, guests can once again look forward to another set of carefully curated Chinese films.
Organized by the Ateneo Ricardo Leong Center for Chinese Studies together with Ateneo Celadon—the premier Chinese-Filipino organization of Ateneo de Manila University, and the Embassy of the People's Republic of China, the 18th Spring Film Festival will be brought to several Robinsons Cinemas around the Philippines. This includes Robinsons Galleria Ortigas, Cebu, South, and Robinsons Movieworld Pavia, Iloilo, in cooperation with Flexo Marketing Corporation, Rotaract Club of Chinatown-Manila, Red Carpet, Molina & Sons, as well as our media partners ChinoyTV, and Manila Bulletin. SFF will also feature 5 other films from February to May 2024:
Tackling the airline industry, The Captain shows the importance of strong-will and perseverance as a pilot attempts to prevent a plane crash.
In Full River Red, the ambassador is killed and a letter meant for the emperor is stolen. As the search unfolds, secrets are revealed and alliances are formed.
Romance and Feelings develop in the movie White Snake as a snake catcher saves a young woman.
In the movie Legend of the Demon Cat, peace appears to have been broken in Chang’an City, causing a series of strange events.
Based on a true story in 2015, Chinese firefighters struggle to contain a huge fire after an oil pipeline explodes as seen in the film The Bravest.
