Manila Skies (Tagalog: Himpapawid) is a 2009 Philippine neo-noir film directed and written by Raymond Red. It is based on the true story of the May 2000 Philippine Airlines Flight 812 hijacking en route from Davao to Manila. This marks Red's first major feature film since winning the Cannes Palme D'Or for his short film Anino in 2000. The film stars newcomer Raul Arellano as a lone, deranged hijacker who is pushed to the edge of his limits as he struggles to make his way back home. It also features John Arcilla, Soliman Cruz, Raul Morit, Karlo Altomonte and Sue Prado.
The film premiered on October 19, 2009 at the Tokyo International Film Festival, where Red was nominated for the Tokyo Grand Prix. At the 2010 Gawad Urian Awards, the film received eleven nominations, the most of any film that year. It bagged Best Supporting Actor for Cruz, Best Supporting Actress for Prado and Best Cinematography for Red.
