58th is an upcoming Philippine adult animation docudrama film co-written and directed by Carl Joseph Papa. The film, set over twelve years after the Maguindanao massacre that took place in 2009, tells the story of the daughter of a missing photojournalist, the 58th and last confirmed victim of the massacre, who is currently searching her father with the family while also fighting against the mass media for justice.
It was Davao's final film performance prior to his death in May 2, 2025.[1]
Premise
The film will tell the story of the family of Bebot Momay, who was considered the 58th victim of the crime, although his body was never found.[2]
Cast
- Glazia de Castro as Ma. Reynafe Momay-Castillo, a daughter of the disappeared photojournalist Reynaldo "Bebot" Momay.
Ricky Davao, Mikoy Morales, Biboy Ramirez, Marco Masa, and Zyren Dela Cruz were cast in undisclosed roles; Davao died in 2025, leaving the project uncertain.
Development
After his completion to his third film Iti Mapukpukaw, he is co-writing and directing a documentary about the massacre in 2009.[4] Aica Riz Ganhinhin, a frequent collaborator of Papa, serves as a co-writer in the film.
Similar to his previous films, the film recorded in live-action during pre-production before used rotoscoping techniques entirely to reflect the story and actors during the post-production process.[citation needed]
In Nov 2024, Glaiza de Castro offered the lead role as the daughter of Reynaldo Momay, alongside Ricky Davao, Mikoy Morales, Biboy Ramirez, Marco Masa, and Zyren Dela Cruz are announced to be part of the cast line-up.[4]
