Accomplishments

As PIFF went through its six past editions, it has stabilized enough to plan to diversify its programming contents. 201 films from 60 countries, the most ever in PIFF's brief history, were shown in displaying the abundance of various film cultures. PPP installed New Directors in Focus (NDIF) in an attempt to discover new domestic film artists, coming up with 8 talented, first time directors-to-be.
