Local film culture was  showcased in the University as the Communication department, in coordination with Malaya Production, brought the crew and actors of 2019 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry Write About Love (WAL) for interactive sessions with the community.

TBA Studios, with director Crisanto Aquino, Film Editor Vanessa De Leon and lead actress Miles Ocampo hyped Adamsonians as they staged a campus tour at the University Theater last December 9.

The film crew gave a short talk question and answer with the students with inquiries focused on technicalities of filmmaking and the movie industry in general. Trailers of WAL and The Lost Sitty were also shown.

Participants were given a piece of paper to write a love letter for their loved ones and each of them had a chance to win special merchandise from the production outfit.

Write About Love is the full-length partner film of the Adamsonian-made The Lost Sitty which is AdU’s official entry to the MMFF’s Student Short Film Competition.

Both films will be shown in cinemas nationwide from December 25, 2019 to January 7, 2020.
