Plot Summary:
“The Curious Case of Benjamin Burger” tells the story of an elderly man who brokers for Chinese businessmen in sealing government contracts. With the help of his “magic burgers,” he would always win contracts for them. A single bite makes government officials say “Yes!” to his proposals. The only other person who knows the burger’s secret ingredient is his 61-year-old cook, Gloria Kusinera. A rival businessman, Joey Divisoria III attempts to bribe Gloria Kusinera into giving him the secret ingredient. Will she accept the bribe? The film boasts of pillow-soft cinematography from Romulus Nerus, and a lush, inspirational original score by Juno Lozade that enhances the film’s wide array of moods.
