About this event
PASTPECTIVE: A Glimpse into Manila’s Local History
History is not just found in books—it lives in the streets, buildings, people, and traditions of our city. Manila, the heart of the Philippines, carries with it countless stories of struggle, resilience, and transformation. Through PASTPECTIVE, we look back at the past with new eyes, capturing the perspectives that shaped who we are today.
This documentary film festival brings together diverse themes—ranging from the roles of women and children, the grandeur of architecture, the rhythm of transportation, the pulse of governance, the strength of faith, the richness of traditions, and the spirit of arts, sports, education, and business. Each story is a piece of Manila’s soul, reminding us that local history is not only about great events, but also about the everyday lives that built the city we call home.
Through these films, we invite you to journey with us, rediscover Manila’s identity, and see the past not as distant, but as alive in our present and future.
