This book explores the complex interplay of culture and economics
in the context of Philippine cinema. It delves into the tension,
interaction, and shifting movements between mainstream and
independent filmmaking, examines the film distribution and
exhibition systems, and investigates how existing business
practices affect the sustainability of the independent sector. This
book addresses the lack or absence of Asian representation in film
distribution literature by supplying the much-needed Asian context
and case study. It also advances the discourse of film distribution
economy by expounding on the formal and semi-formal film
distribution practices in a developing Asian country like the
Philippines, where the thriving piracy culture is considered as
'normal,' and which is commonly depicted and discussed in existing
literature. As such, this will be the first book that looks into
the specifics of the Philippine film distribution and exhibition
system and provides a historical grounding of its practices.
