At the ‘Locarno Open Doors Closing Dinner @ Philippine Cinema Night’ held at BLU Restaurant and Lounge. Likewise, the return of Filipinos to this year's 74th Locarno Film Festival shows the resurgence of the global spirit among our 27 on-site and online delegates. With the activities and screenings featured throughout August 9, it was dubbed as PH Cinema Day to highlight the Philippines' participation in Locarno. Our virtual delegates were Bianca Balbuena-Liew as an Open Doors Lab Mentor; Sarah Brakensiek, Patti Lapus, and Micah Tadena for Match Me! The acclaimed director, producer, and writer, also the founder and festival director of the Cine Totoo Philippine Documentary Film Festival, was so young and immensely talented.
