Six short films from the 5th Margaha Film Festival will be airing on SOLARFLIX on a limited basis premiering on April 14, 8:30-10:30PM. This is in partnership with Solar Entertainment's TV/Cable channel SOLARFLIX and NCCA's Cinema Rehiyon 2024 as part of the extended celebration of National Arts Month.

With the theme 'Sine Singko," the festival by the sea continues to celebrate the tangible and intangible cultural heritage of the City of Sagay through grassroots cinema.

This year’s films are “Aba” directed by Aljean Joulse Tagayong explores a girl’s psyche on whether to abort a child or not, “Bang Bang Bang Patay ka na Patay ka na!” by Thirdy Macam which tackles the addiction of a kid to watching action movies, “Kalye Bruka” by Joan Honoridez highlights the return of a transgender woman in a community that brought internal ills to her; “Mananguete” by Mery Grace Rama-Mission explores the effects of dementia to a person while tackling the dying tuba-making in Sagay, and “Taga-Taga” by Trini Garcia which humanizes the romantic endeavors of two praying mantis.

The short films were previously premiered by the Margaha Beach on the last week of February as part of the Sagay City Arts Month celebration.

This year’s theme is “Sine Singko” which is a nod to the 'Bidyo Singko' culture in Sagay where a simple coin unlocks the joy of music in videoke machines.

SOLARFLIX is seen on SKYCable Ch. 16, Cignal Ch. 21, CableLink Ch. 33, GSat Ch. 40, DTT Ch. 21 in Metro Manila.
