WATCH: Is Philippine cinema still thriving? (Generations Ep. 19)

With audiences increasingly turning to international films, streaming platforms, and AI-generated vertical dramas, where does that leave Filipino cinema?

In this episode of Generations, veteran journalist Luchi Cruz-Valdes and millennial content creator Raco Ruiz sit down with filmmakers Carlos Siguion-Reyna, Mark Meily, and Rae Red to talk about the state of the local film industry today. They discuss changing audience tastes, the growing pull of international content, the cost of going to the movies, and what the rise of AI could mean for the future of filmmaking.

The Generations podcast is executive produced by Sheila Paras with Brooke Villanueva of PhilSTAR Life and Sol Galang of IM Creatives.
