Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino (lit. 'Festival of Filipino Films'), abbreviated as PPP, is a film festival held in the Philippines in celebration of the Buwan ng Wika. It is organized by the Film Development Council of the Philippines. Similar to the Metro Manila Film Festival, only shortlisted films will be shown in cinemas except in select 3D cinemas, VIP cinemas (in an opt-in/opt-out basis by developer) and IMAX theaters.

The movies are classified into 3 categories. First are the Main Feature Films which are competing for the awards. Second are the "Sine Kabataan Shorts" which are 5-minute short films that are played before the feature film. Third are the Non-Competition entries which are movies that won in other film festivals and as such, are given special limited screening during the PPP festival.

Select editions

2021 edition

For the 2021 edition, the Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino shifted from showcasing feature-length film to showcasing solely short films on the FDCP website.

2022 edition

The PPP returned to live screening for the 2022 edition. Feature films associated with actress Nora Aunor, screenwriter Ricky Lee, and director Marilou Diaz-Abaya as well as other restored films were among the works showcased.

Proposed 2024 edition

In January 2024, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority offered a proposal to the FDCP to help them organize a 2024 edition of the PPP, since they do not plan to hold the Summer Metro Manila Film Festival in that year. The organization of the PPP is not part of FDCP's budget for 2024, and they released a statement that an extensive study is needed to be made in regards to the proposal.
