(SPOT.ph) The Metro Manila Summer Film Festival has been postponed. The festival was conceived as the summer edition of the Metro Manila Film Festival (more popularly known as the MMFF), a Christmastime tradition for most. The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority or the MMDA had recently announced the lineup for the upcoming summer edition, originally scheduled to take place from April 11 to 21.

The announcement was made on the Metro Manila Film Festival official Facebook page following President Rodrigo Duterte's televised address regarding community quarantine in the Metro, which will be effective from March 15 to April 14.
