The Lockdown Cinema Club is an initiative by Filipino filmmakers to reach and help fellow Filipino film workers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.Since early March, a month-long community quarantine was implemented with most companies requiring employees to work from home in order to adhere to the quarantine measures. However, this also meant that film productions were put on hold, and our film workers are in a dangerous position of not being able to acquire necessary income for a whole month. More than 500 film workers are at the moment displaced. The numbers are bound to increase as the quarantine stretches.This is why we’re asking for your help. Fellow independent Filipino film workers displaced due to the lockdown will benefit from any contributions made through this project.We hope we can be partners with you in this endeavor, and that hand-in-hand we can help our film workers during these troubling times.Binge-watch these works at home, and help raise money for the most vulnerable members of the Filipino independent film community. Watch all you want, and give what you can.To help the displaced film workers, you can course your donation (at any amount) through the following:BDOAccount Name: Alemberg AngBank Account Number: 004448023723BPIAccount Name: Marc Frederik GalvezBank Account Number: 8250015713PAYPALhttp://paypal.me/AlembergAngTicket2Mehttps://ticket2me.net/e/5681

Short films produced by Hong Kong teenagers bring you insights into social inclusion. Fight for Show is an educational project for Hong Kong local secondary students, teaching them how to make short movies.The project adapted the concept of “Edutainment” as the underlying education philosophy. Through the production of mini-dramas, participating students would realize the meaning of teamwork, creativity and appreciate the value of social inclusion.Thanks to the support from others, we had invited local young emerging directors and university students in relevant programmes to guide the students to make 20 mini-dramas on the topics of social inclusion, namely mental health, technology adaptation, ethnic minority, disability and intergenerational relationship.
