As Executive Director of the Academy, Margaret Herrick embarked on several international trips in the 1960s, visiting national film academies, festivals, studios, universities and film schools. This recently unearthed newsreel footage was shot in the Philippines during a 1966 global outreach tour that spanned 11 countries. The tour was in part a response to international interest in the Academy’s Foreign Language Film Award, which had been a competitive category for 10 years at the time of her visit.

In the newsreel, Herrick arrives at a cocktail party held in her honor by Filipino filmmaker Luis Nepomuceno and his wife Amparo in late August 1966. At the party, she meets Filipino film industry professionals and reporters, feasts on the local cuisine, and watches a performance of traditional Filipino dancing.
