My friend Pao (part of the production of Tundong Magiliw)  along with our other friends are opening this new space along Anonas which celebrates cinema and provides us a venue for film screenings and art exhibits. (The new Mogwai Cinematheque, hopefully.) So do come by if you are free and bring along a friend or go alone and we shall find a corner and be together in our awkwardness. Spread the word and support local cinema!
