It is understandable if the superstar Ms. Nora Aunor is super excited about “Kabisera” landing a place among the eight official entries to this year’s Metro Manila Film Festival. “Matagal na kasi ako hindi nakasali sa MMFF, kaya sobrang excitement ko na napili ang pelikula namin,” she said.
And it’s interesting to note that aside from Nora, most of the cast are awarded actors, too: Gawad URIAN Best Actors Ricky Davao and Jason Abalos; URIAN Best Supporting Actor Menchie Cobarrubias, QCinema Best Actor JC de Vera, MMFF Best Supporting Actor Victor Neri, Sinagtala Best Actress Ces Quesada, Cine Filipino Best Actor Karl Medina, and URIAN Best Supporting Actress Perla Bautista. Also in the cast are producer-actor RJ Agustin, Ronwaldo Martin, Kiko Matos, and Alex San Agustin.
Asked why they chose “Kabisera” for an MMFF project, director Real Florido said, “Ang pamilya ang pinaka-importanteng kayaman na mayroon ang Pilipino. Sa bagong hakbang ng MMFF ngayon na magbigay ng higit na makabuluhang pelikula, naisip namin, ‘Bakit di tayo gumawa ng istoryang malapit talaga sa puso ng bawat Pinoy?’ We’re talking about value and what’s more valuable to us than the family?”
On the other hand, the film’s producer RJ Agustin enjoins Filipinos to watch the movie, which, by the way, was inspired by a true story.
“We are inviting them na umupo sa ‘Kabisera,’ manood kasama ang mga mahal sa buhay… let’s stand up for Pinoy films and families.”
The cast and crew of “Kabisera” are scheduled to tour nationwide in support of the film.
