Filippella also has received twice the Philip Morris Cinema Award and the Sergio Corbucci Prize in 2006.[4]

His feature film Silver Case stars Academy Award Nominees Seymour Cassel and Eric Roberts in the lead role of the Senator, and features Shalim Ortiz, Chris Facey, Brian Keith Gamble, Vincent De Paul (actor), Fernanda Romero, Scarlett Chorvat and Claire Falconer.[5]

Silver Case, which premiered at Rome International Film Festival, won 5 Indie Awards with Best of Show. The movie has been released worldwide.[6]
