Quezon City becomes more than just a venue—it transforms into a storytelling capital—when QCinema 2025 returns with a dynamic showcase of short films from across the globe.
Honey, My Love, So Sweet
QCShorts International, a staple of the QCinema International Film Festival (QCIFF), expands its scope this year with an exciting roster: 33 short films from 21 countries, presented in six distinct thematic programs. These films push the boundaries of fiction, animation, documentary, and experimental cinema, collectively reflecting the festival’s overarching 2025 theme, “Film City.”
“The expansion of QCinema’s short film program is part of the festival’s commitment to leveraging the short film as a form for experimentation and storytelling while also honoring how it has been involved in much larger global conversations, especially as a city of film.” – Programmer and film critic Jason Tan Liwag
A Competition of Southeast Asian Voices, Rooted in Home
At the heart of QCShorts International is a competition section, featuring six local grantee films and fifteen Southeast Asian entries, spread across four programs. Each segment invites viewers to rethink the short film not just as a prelude, but as a complete, resonant art form.
Surface Tension
Program 1: This Vast Artifice
Borrowing its title from Eve Driver’s poetry, this program explores the fragile illusions of modern cities. Stories from the Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand question what happens when hope meets concrete—and when innocence breaks beneath neon.

Surface Tension – The Serrano Sisters (QCinema grantee, Philippines)

Hoy, Hoy, Ingat! – Norvin de los Santos (QCinema grantee, Philippines)
Si Kara: Ang Babaye Nga Nag Daba-Daba – Dale (QCinema grantee, Philippines)

When the Blues Goes Marching In – Beny Kristia (Indonesia)
Program 3: This Is Where I Leave You
Letting go is never simple. These five shorts depict departures both literal and emotional—letting go of home, love, and memory. Quiet yet evocative, the program hints at new beginnings amid endings.
Featured Films:
Agapito – Arvin Belarmino & Kyla Danelle Romero (Philippines/France)
Before the Sea Forgets – Lê Ngọc Duy (Singapore)
Grandma Nai Who Played Favorites – Chheangkea (Cambodia/France/USA)
Sammi, Who Can Detach His Body Parts – Rein Maychaelson (Indonesia)
Childhood, reimagined. These six shorts from the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia trace journeys through identity, grief, ancestry, and land. With vibrant perspectives and deep emotional resonance, this competition segment invites viewers into youthful awakenings.
Featured Films:
Baby Fat – Margarita Mina (USA/Philippines)
In the Valley – Lim Han Loong (Malaysia)
Little Rebels Cinema Club – Khozy Rizal (Indonesia)
My Plastic Mother – Amar Haikal (Indonesia)
Ours Was A Timeless Night Burning – Lauviah Caliboso (QCinema grantee, Philippines)
In addition to its competition section, QCShorts International introduces two exhibition programs under QCShorts Expo, each offering a radically different viewing experience.
Unthinkable Atrocities
Brave, urgent, and sometimes unsettling, these films explore horrors both imagined and all too real. From folkloric curses to genocide and censorship, the program refuses easy resolutions—and instead forces us to witness, remember, and imagine resistance.
Spotlighted Filmmakers: Mattie Do, Jocelyn Charles, Mohammed Almughanni, Neo Sora, Maryam Tafakory, Christopher Radcliff
A Very Straight Neck
Unhealthy Fixations
The sixth and newest program features 2024 QCinema grantees returning with fresh works.

What would you do if your only shot at saving your daughter meant stepping into the most brutal reality show on the planet? In The Running Man, that’s the nightmare Glen Powell’s character must face—where survival isn’t just unlikely, it’s statistically nonexistent.
Screenshot
A brand-new behind-the-scenes featurette, “Inside the World of The Running Man,” peels back the curtain on this adrenaline-charged thriller. With insight from director Edgar Wright and the film’s powerhouse cast—including Powell, Colman Domingo, and Josh Brolin—the video sets the stage for a game of survival unlike anything we’ve seen before.
Watch the Featurette Now:
Welcome to Tomorrow’s Most Twisted Reality Show
Set in a dystopian future obsessed with televised violence and spectacle, The Running Man reimagines Stephen King’s chilling novel for a new generation. Contestants—known as “Runners”—have 30 days to survive being hunted by a squad of professional killers, all while the nation watches live, hungry for blood and betting on their deaths.
Enter Ben Richards (Glen Powell), a desperate man with nothing left to lose. When the system leaves him no choice, he signs up for the deadly game, hoping to win enough to pay for his daughter’s medical treatment. But Ben quickly becomes more than just another Runner—he becomes a symbol of resistance.

Edgar Wright Levels Up the Action
Known for his high-octane storytelling (Baby Driver, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World), Edgar Wright brings a ferocious new energy to this adaptation. Unlike the 1987 cult classic, this version leans closer to King’s original novel—amplifying its societal critique, tension, and psychological thrills.
Wright explains in the featurette how he wanted the game to feel larger, more real, and more terrifying. It’s not just about action; it’s about the dehumanizing power of media and the moral rot at the heart of an entertainment-hungry culture.
Glen Powell Leads a Stacked Cast
Fresh off Top Gun: Maverick and Twisters, Glen Powell transforms into a gritty, grounded Ben Richards—a man pushed to the brink and beyond. In the featurette, Powell shares how this isn’t your typical hero’s journey. His Ben is messy, emotional, and dangerously unpredictable.
He’s joined by an all-star cast:
Josh Brolin as Dan Killian, the show’s charismatic yet calculating producer.
Colman Domingo, who adds gravitas and menace as a high-ranking player in the brutal game.
The film’s premise is terrifyingly timely. As audiences cheer for carnage, Ben’s rising popularity begins to threaten the very system that created the show. With each close call and narrow escape, the nation tunes in tighter—and the producers double down.
As Powell puts it, The Running Man isn’t just a survival thriller. It’s a commentary on how far we’ve come—or fallen—as a society addicted to watching others fail.
A Visual and Emotional Spectacle
From neon-lit streets to sprawling urban warzones, Wright’s vision turns the entire world into a stage—and every camera into a weapon. The cinematography blends kinetic energy with stark realism, making the viewer feel like they’re part of the chase.
Meanwhile, the emotional core of the story—Ben’s fight for his daughter—grounds the action in heartbreak and humanity. It’s these contrasts that make The Running Man pulse with urgency.
Mark Your Calendar: The Hunt Starts November 12
Get ready for a survival story that cuts deep. The Running Man opens exclusively in Philippine cinemas on November 12—and based on this featurette, it promises to be one of the year’s most unforgettable cinematic events.
Whether you’re a fan of high-stakes thrillers, satirical sci-fi, or just great performances, this is one race you’ll want a front-row seat for.
Watch your back. Trust no one. And remember: in this game, the only rule is survive.
The phone rings again—and this time, it’s personal. Horror icon Sidney Prescott returns to the screen in Scream 7, the chilling new chapter of the legendary slasher saga. The official trailer has just been released, along with the film’s electrifying new poster and a batch of first-look images that promise terror, legacy, and plenty of blood.
Directed by Scream creator Kevin Williamson, the film slashes its way into cinemas in February 2026.
A Legacy Reignited
Nearly three decades since the original scream shattered the silence, Sidney (Neve Campbell) faces a new kind of nightmare—one that threatens not just her, but her family. This time, the mask is back… and it’s after her daughter.
Official Synopsis: Family, Fear, and the Final Fight
In a quiet town far removed from the chaos of Woodsboro, Sidney Prescott has carved out a new life. But peace is short-lived. When a new Ghostface killer emerges, Sidney’s world is turned upside down. And when her daughter (played by Isabel May) becomes the next target, Sidney must confront the trauma of her past to protect the future of her family.
The stakes have never been higher. The blood has never run deeper.
Behind the Mask: Cast & Crew
Brought to life by Paramount Pictures and Spyglass Media Group, Scream 7 is packed with genre pedigree. The film is:
Based on characters originally created by Williamson himself, the franchise continues to evolve while honoring the spine-chilling spirit of the original.
First Look: A Taste of Terror
The first-look images tease a darker, grittier installment—blending eerie new settings with classic slasher suspense. One image shows Sidney clutching her daughter’s hand as they flee into the woods; another frames Ghostface in a blood-smeared mask, bathed in ominous red light.
The Countdown Begins
With Kevin Williamson back at the helm and Neve Campbell leading the charge, Scream 7 promises to be the most intense and emotionally charged film in the series yet. Old wounds are reopened. New nightmares awaken.
Only in Cinemas February 2026 — Follow updates: @paramountpicsph #Scream7
Visionary filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, the acclaimed director behind Poor Things and The Favourite, returns to the big screen with Bugonia — a provocative new thriller that digs into paranoia, conspiracy thinking, and the widening social divides fueled by technology. The film marks his latest collaboration with Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, following their acclaimed work together in Poor Things and Kinds of Kindness.
Lanthimos shares that the story is deeply rooted in the way people interpret — and misinterpret — the world around them.
“In the world that we live in now, people live in certain bubbles that have been enhanced by technology,” Lanthimos says. “Having certain ideas about people is reinforced depending on which bubble you live in, creating this big chasm between people. I wanted to challenge the viewer about the things that we’re very certain about, the judgment calls that you make about certain kinds of people. It’s a very interesting reflection of our society and the conflict in our contemporary world.”
Watch the Trailer:
A Dangerous Plot Led by Paranoia
In Bugonia, two young men — Teddy (Plemons) and Don (Aidan Delbis) — kidnap Michelle (Stone), a high-profile CEO. Their motive: an unshakeable belief, fueled by online conspiracy theories, that she is an alien intent on destroying Earth. As their panic intensifies inside the confines of a basement, their delusions and shifting perspectives create a warped battleground of fear, confusion, and misplaced conviction.
A Director at the Top of His Craft
Lanthimos is a six-time Academy Award–nominated filmmaker celebrated for his bold visual style and genre-defying stories. His most recent feature, Poor Things, earned the Golden Lion at the 2023 Venice Film Festival, garnered 11 Oscar nominations, and won four — including Best Actress for Emma Stone. His other internationally recognized films include:
The Favourite
The Lobster
The Killing of a Sacred Deer
A Korean Classic, Reimagined
Bugonia is adapted from the 2003 Korean film Save the Green Planet! Screenwriter Will Tracy reinterpreted the story during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, channeling the period’s intensity and anxieties into the script.
“We were locked-down, and I was probably losing my mind a little bit in this little apartment in Brooklyn,” Tracy says. “I wrote it in about three weeks, and I’ve tried not to analyze it too much, but I’m sure something in that atmosphere made its way into the script – that claustrophobic feeling that I don’t think I would have been able to write if not in those circumstances.”
An Emotional Roller Coaster
Plemons recalls being struck by the film’s dynamic tone.
“The tone of it is so wild and varying — it’s so funny and so tragic, and the way into these very big conversations is so left-field and unexpected,” says Plemons. “It’s a really strange but honest portrait of the times we’re living in, how confusing and absurd it all is.”
Stone, who also produces the film alongside Lanthimos, describes Bugonia as intimate yet thematically vast.
“It has that sort of microcosmic quality,” says Stone, who produced the film with Lanthimos in their fifth project together. “There’s a sort of insanity and a commentary in the midst of a really small environment, which I think Yorgos tends to be drawn to. We’re in a basement, and it’s really just people talking to each other a lot of the time, having perspectives that feel maybe incorrect or twisted. But they reveal these different versions of humanity and what can happen in a downward spiral of convincing yourself of something.”
A Cinema-Sized Experience
Lanthimos insists that Bugonia is best seen on the biggest screen possible.
“Most films should be enjoyed like that, in a cinema with other people. It’s a communal experience, but especially this film, the way it’s filmed on VistaVision, a beautiful format, and the sound design that Johnnie Burn has done, along with Jerskin Fendrix’s score,” Lanthimos says. “It’s just a very full and dramatic experience, both in its hilarity and its horror, that can only be experienced fully in a cinema.”
Coming Soon to Philippine Cinemas
A gripping descent into fear and conviction awaits when Bugonia opens in Philippine theaters November 5.
One of the world’s most influential rock operas is coming to the Philippines.

A Bold Reimagining of A Global Classic
With music and lyrics by Emmy, GRAMMY, Oscar, and Tony winners Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, Jesus Christ Superstar has remained a cultural touchstone for more than 50 years This production was reimagined by London’s Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre, where it originated, and is helmed by director Timothy Sheader and choreographer Drew McOnie. Completing the creative team is design by Tom Scutt, lighting design by Lee Curran, sound design by Nick Lidster, and music supervision by Tom Deering.
A global phenomenon that has wowed audiences for decades, JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR is a timeless work that explores the biblical portrayal of the extraordinary events that led to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ as seen through the eyes of his betrayer, Judas Iscariot. The story, told entirely through song, explores the personal relationships and struggles among Jesus, Judas, Mary Magdalene, Jesus’ disciples, his followers, and the Roman Empire. Originally released as a concept album, the iconic 1970s rock score contains such well-known numbers as ‘Superstar’, ‘I Don’t Know How to Love Him’, and ‘Gethsemane’.

JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR opened on Broadway in 1971 at the Mark Hellinger Theatre. The original London production opened at the Palace Theatre on 9 August 1972 and ran for over eight years. By the time it closed, after 3,358 performances, it had become the longest-running musical in West End history at that time. JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR has been reproduced regularly around the world in the years since its first appearance, with performances including a Broadway revival in 2012, an ITV competition TV show called Superstar that led to casting Ben Forster as Jesus in an arena tour of the show, and a production at the Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre celebrating 45 years since the musical’s Broadway debut.
Producer David Ian said, “After incredible success in Australia and the UK, we’re delighted to be bringing Jesus Christ Superstar to Manila. This Olivier Award-winning production has amazed audiences around the world with its raw energy and breathtaking performances. Whether you’ve loved the show for decades or are discovering it for the first time, this will be an unforgettable experience.”
Carlos Candal, CEO of GMG Productions, said: “We’re beyond thrilled to bring one of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s most iconic and influential musicals of all time to Manila. Jesus Christ Superstar is a show that transcends generations. Its music and story continue to inspire audiences, and we can’t wait for Filipino fans to experience this powerful production live.
This production of JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR won the 2017 Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival and the 2016 Evening Standard Award for Best Musical, selling out two consecutive engagements in 2016 and 2017. The production played a West End engagement at the Barbican in 2019 before returning to Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre in concert version during the summer of 2020, followed by a universally acclaimed UK tour in 2023/24.
Casting will be announced soon.
