As the summer season intensifies, CPU’s Sigrab Film Festival 2026 continues to fan the flames as it launches its ticket sales on April 7, 2026. Marking nearly a decade of cinematic excellence, the festival’s ninth anniversary explores the intricate layers of reality through the theme: “Ang Marmol nga Nawong sang Kamatuoran” (The Marble Face of Truth). This year’s lineup of films promises to examine the many facades of truth.

The premiere and awarding ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Rose Memorial Auditorium today, April 17, 2026, where the community will gather to witness these student-made films come to life on the big screen.

The competition features eleven teams coming from various departments and colleges, each offering a unique perspective through a wide array of genres. These productions represent the culmination of weeks of creative labor, aimed at challenging perceptions and celebrating the craft of filmmaking. To accommodate these entries, the festival is divided into two screening sessions, with the morning session being held from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM, and the afternoon session being held from 1:00 PM to 3:30 PM.

Reflecting the festival’s commitment to cultural accessibility, tickets are general admission and priced affordably at P75 for all attendees. This fee grants patrons access to a high-caliber showcase of emerging talent and quality production. For the convenience of the public, the organizing committee has established multiple modes of payment:

  • On-Site Transactions: Physical tickets may be reserved in-person through Dr. Clarence Benjamin (Facebook: Clarence Benjamin | Phone Number: 09171351554)
  • Digital Transactions: E-tickets may be reserved online via the link below or by scanning the QR code provided (https://bit.ly/SIGRAB2026Tickets).

Detailed instructions regarding payment gateways are available through the festival’s official social media page via Facebook (CPU Sigrab Film Festival) or Instagram (@Sigrab Film Fest).

The Sigrab Film Festival invites the community to witness these narratives unfold. In the halls of the Rose Memorial Auditorium, the “Marble Face of Truth” awaits its reveal, however contorted or simple it may seem to be.
