Mercedes Cabral started her acting debut in independent films and theatre. She stars in Kinatay, the independent Filipino film which won the award for Best Director at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival this year. A darling of the Philippine indie film scene, Mercedes is no stranger to Cannes: She also starred in the Philippine entry Serbis two years ago and won the title of Most Beautiful Actress in Cannes. The freelance model and fine arts student from U.P Diliman certainly deserves the title.
