AFTER CONQUERING the Cannes Filmfest where he won the best director award for “Kinatay”, Dante Mendoza is now all set to make his presence felt at the Berlin International Filmfest to be held starting February 9, 2012. His entry is “Captive” (formerly “Prey) about a foreign aid volunteer (played by French actress Isabelle Huppert) who gets kidnapped by the Abu Sayyaf. It will be shown in competition. The Filipino actors in the film are Angel Aquino, Raymond Bagatsing, Sid Lucero, Maribel Lopez and Ronnie Lazaro. To Dante, good luck, hope you win again this time.
