“My Bebe Love” director Joey Reyes confirmed yesterday in his Twitter account that there was a “ticket swapping” that happened at the opening of Metro Manila Film Festival 2015. This prompted the MMFF Committee to conduct investigation immediately.
On December 26, the MMFF Committee through its official Social Media accounts releases a statement denying the “baseless” allegations thrown by “My Bebe Love” director on Twitter.
MMFF Statement Released on December 26, 2015:
The Metro Manila Film Festival, after looking into the ticket swapping issue, strongly denies the existence of such and is enjoining all the stakeholders of the Festival to be responsible in expressing their sentiments especially on Social Media. The objective of the MMFF is to promote the local film industry and this baseless issue will only sideline the true intent and purpose of the Festival. Let’s continue supporting all the entries of the MMFF 2015.
