The Filipino film industry is supposed to have its banner year this 2020 with the ongoing Sine Sandaan or Philippine Cinema Centennial celebration. Sine Sandaan affairs that aim to honor luminaries and unsung heroes are slated to continue this year, leading up to the closing of the yearlong commemoration of One Hundred Years of Philippine Cinema in September. In addition, screenings, talks, conferences, film development lab programs, film markets and film festivals here and overseas have been finalized. Yet, everything was suddenly put on hold. Philippine Cinema is now at a standstill because of the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic.
