Pambujan International Film Festival is the first film festival in Eastern Visayas launched in 2009 with its banner 1st Pambujan Pelikula Para sa Publiko (Films for the Public). For its 4th edition in 2012, it metamorphosed into Pambujan Film Festival. It had its hiatus in 2014 for restructuring. In 2021 for its 7th edition, it goes international, giving more variety of films to the public.
Pambujan is a developing town in Eastern Philippines. The films you will submit and the entry fees you are paying will help encourage and educate the community to unleash their potential in art. Mahibaro Mag-inop (Dare to Dream) is the festival's motto, pushing the people to develop their artistry instead of just mere observers.
The 8th edition of the event was a live screening at the Pambujan Municipal Auditorium.
