The Summer Metro Manila Film Festival (Summer MMFF) is a film festival intended to be held annually in Metro Manila, Philippines. The event is a spin-off of the Metro Manila Film Festival which is officially held every December. Like its sister festival, it excludes foreign films and only shows shortlisted entries in digital theaters except IMAX and 4D theaters.
It was originally slated to take place in 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic forced to halt the event as a result of closure of the theaters having to shut for over 20 months. The first edition was held in April 2023.[1]
