Based in New Delhi, India, the We Care International Film Festival will hold its 17th edition in Manila sometime in September, barring the volatile situation of the pandemic Covid-19 virus now taking its toll with impunity the world over. This was recently confirmed by the country’s officially designated local festival director Romm Burlat in his last communique with founding festival director Satish Kapoor. This brings us to several international nominations and some major awards vis-a-vis the local ones in the direction director Burlat gathered for the country. Recently, he won Best Director at last year’s We Care Film Festival for “Ama Ka Ng Anak Mo” ( Father of Your Son) which he also produced and acted in. Added to this was his latest award as Best Director for his “Bata, Bata Bakit Ka Ginawa?” at the first Quezon City Christian Film Festival.
