From what used to be a horror-genre festival, Ngilngig Festival has expanded its scope to become the first fantastic film festival of its kind in Southeast Asia, extending the reach to other neighboring countries’ “ngilngig” and fantastic films that are significant with our own ways of telling stories to promote and preserve our myths, traditions, history and culture into cinematic form.

The Ngilngig Film Lab (NFL) is a series of film production workshops open to all aspiring filmmakers, including the Ngilngig Film Camp fellows to further prepare them to produce their developed scripts into film. It is through theory and technical consultations, and actual onsite trainings by established Mindanaoan filmmakers.
