Ruben Soriquez’s ‘Pandemiocracy’ released in US and Europe, coming soon to PH
Filipino-Italian actor/director Ruben Soriquez, who is now in the US for a Hollywood role-still covered by a non- disclosure agreement, said that his new film Pandemiocracy: When A Virus Rules The World has just been released in North America and in Europe.
The documentary follows the journey of a young woman and her two children travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, amid flight bans and travel restrictions, to reach her husband in her home country, the Philippines.
Accompanied by scientific contributions from prominent virologists and doctors, as well as touching stories of humanity and hope, this well crafted and relevant documentary also focuses on coping with the mental and physical distress that all people around the world experienced during the long lockdowns.
Shot entirely during lockdown in Italy, the Netherlands, Taiwan, the US and also the Philippines, Soriquez’s work also features recent studies on the impact of lockdown done by world top universities like Stanford and the University College of London and deals with the tough theme of human rights violation during the pandemic.
Pandemiocracy is now streaming on FOX’s platform TubiTV, and will be available soon for streaming in our country.
Soriquez also reveals a lead role in an Italian production in 2022 called Mariana’s Web which will be directed by the young and talented Italian director Marco Calvise. He said that he plans to shoot again in the Philippines very soon.
