Manny Pacquiao Documentary

PAAFF proudly presents a monthly screening series at the Asian Arts Initiative that starts off with the gripping feature length doc about Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao and his tremendous rise to success. The film narrated by Liam Neeson follows Manny from a starving teenager who fought to feed his family, to a Congressman working tirelessly to improve the lives of his people. Manny is a hard hitting documentary film that explores the many triumphs and tribulations of the Filipino boxing sensation; screening just weeks after his title match with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather.

PAAFF is excited to launch this new monthly film series at Asian Arts Initiative, a longtime festival partner. For more information about the screening please visit asianartsinitiative.org.

WHEN: May 28th, 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm

The Philadelphia Asian American Film Festival (PAAFF) Preview Party is a free public event that will provide a sneak peek of what to expect at our upcoming annual film festival, scheduled for November 7th - 17th. We will unveil this year’s theme, the festival trailer, and trailers of the feature films. Guests will get an overview of the programming, including non-film events such as panels, performances, and parties as well as VIP guests attending the festival.

We have added a new element to our preview party this year. We will host a mini-marketplace to support and provide a platform for our local AAPI makers and businesses. We will also feature a local indie band, Moonroof.

This will close in 20 seconds
