Watch List tells the story of a woman whose husband is killed and must now take on the role of family breadwinner and protector. It is a very human story. At it's most basic, it is about the lengths to which a mother will go to protect her children. The deeply moving film is the result of the partnership of top-caliber artists from the Philippines and from abroad.
Watch List stars a formidable all filipino cast composed of Alessandra De Rossi, Jake Macapagal, Art Acuna, Lou Veloso, Jess Mendoza and Angeli Bayani with Micko Laurente and Timothy Mabalot.
The Hollywood based director reveals he cast actors that not only fit their roles but could also carry the depth of emotion.
He was very impressed with everyone and singled-out Alessandra, Jake, Art and Micko.
" I was very foetunate. Alessandra's talent is something i've never seen before. Jake who is very well known in Hollywood for his work in Metro Manila brought a level of intensity that is going to surprise people. Art is also a force of nature. One of the breakout performances is Micko Laurente who plays Alessandra's teenage son. I think he's just going to absolutely break people's heart. " sez Ben.
Ben's collaborators in the project include executive producer Anjay Nagpal, who served as co-executive producer of Joker, International cinematographer Daniela Nowitz and award winning Filipino production designer Ericson Navarro.
Ben is dedicating Watch List to the Filipinos in frony and behind the scenes who helped him make the film.
