Canada’s Peterson Polaris Boards ‘What’s Left Of Us’ From Filipino-American Filmmaker Tyrone Acierto


Calgary-based production house to co-produce with the Philippines’ Fusee and Acierto’s CineBandits.

Acierto, whose work often explores identity, survival and socio-political themes, has previously directed two features, The Grave Bandits and Watch Me Kill, and founded CineBandits to focus on genre-driven stories rooted in Southeast Asian narratives. As a director, Peterson’s credits include Lloyd The Conqueror, Knuckleball and exorcist horror Shadow Of God, picked up by Shudder this year. “Since Fusee has been working closely now with North America and Asia, it makes sense for us to bridge our efforts to ensure a wider audience for the projects in our pipeline.”
