This June, Cinema One Global draws the curtains for its 10th year celebration marked by a new onair look and featuring iconic movies and personalities.
The international version of the number one cable channel in the Philippines (based on Kantar Media) launched its new programming to become a movie and drama channel. It also unveiled its new look with the tagline “Saan Ka Man, Laging Kasama.”
Said Ned Legaspi, head of Global Content: “As TFC celebrates 20 years of the ‘galing ng Filipino’ and Cinema One marks 20 years of service in the Philippines, we also mark a decade of stories and people in film that, together with Cinema One Global, have made an impact on the life of Filipinos detached from home.”
All throughout the celebration, Cinema One Global will retell the stories of Filipino heroes through its “Bayani,” “Team Makabayan” and “Mga Bagong Bayani” blocks and feature five of the finest Filipino films in “Obra Ni Direk.” It will also offer “Kilig Block” and “Blockbuster Nights” as well as the movies of icons Fernando Poe Jr., Dolphy and Robin Padilla, among others.
One of the highlights of the anniversary lineup is the television premiere of “Four Sisters and a Wedding” (June 7), Cinema One Festivals 2011 finalist “Di Ingon, Nato” (“Not Like Us”) (June 14), “Tuhog” (June 21) and independent film “Isda” (June 28).
Cinema One Global is available via Internet protocol television, satellite, cable and online though the worldwide subsidiaries and affiliates of ABS-CBN. (Marianne de Vera)
