- SM ePlus Promo with Limited Edition PPP branded cards. For SM cinemas nationwide, customers may purchase a limited edition PPP branded ePlus card for P 990 which they may use to watch six (6) films.
At very low prices, audiences will get to support Filipino films and celebrate stories that resonate and imbibe the Filipino craft of storytelling. In anticipation of the event, everyone is invited to spend August 13 at the Burnham Green, Luneta Park for a Pista at the Park with fun games, food, cultural performances, and a motorcade of the stars and cast of the PPP films.
